Beats me, but they're great for dancing - and listening. Rock Henry Lee was making music while most of today's local musicians were cuddling Cabbage Patch dolls. He's a survivor whose optimism has not been diminished by life's hard knocks and the passage of time. This cut, from his excellent new double-live CD, is one of his greatest hits. He performed it on the Letterman show back in the '80s and it's just as good today.
Few performers are as honest and hardworking as Summer - or as good.
Today's bands could take more than a few lessons from Henry Lee, whose commitment to entertainment has never been stronger. Long may he rave. But this unreleased gem, from the never-released JohnsMom. Com CD, is a rave-up with a fluid lead guitar line that propels the song forward like a Ford truck heading down Highway 37. Despite the masturbatory theme, the band is not jacking off in any sense during the song.
