    In the US, that was their only "hit," though like many rock bands, they had oh so many deep cuts that were better songs and deserve some radio play.

    Seu Jorge is the reason I got into Bowie.

    His grandparents are Woody and Soon-Yi.

    Could be! I wouldn't be surprised that the songwriter behind "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" and "I Love You Period" would not be the one to write an actual catchy rock song.

    Georgia Satellites should have been a two-hit wonder. "Battleship Chains" was the superior song.

    Never underestimate a band who can both start and prevent a jailbreak ANYWHERE IN THIS TOWN

    Shannon Sharpe's covering all these songs, right?

    So that whole "how did I miss that" question was…?

    sad try at relevancy to millennials

    Wasn't that on the same compilation as Cinderella bastardizing Janis Joplin and Motley Crue bastardizing the Sex Pistols?

    It was a few months ago and the comment thread was "heyday Community" length.

    It was a tribute to the brick makers of mid 19th century Frampton-on-Severn, of course.

    We've got to pray just to post in Disqus today.

    Oh cool, now I know Jonathon Poneman's Disqus user ID.

    Hmm, who knows. James Young's just got a weird face, and it's no longer obscured by fuzzy bangs and a mustache.

    Pete Comita was with them for one tour before Jonathan Brant came on board for most of the 80s.

    And before Shaw joined the band, John Curulewski had the best songs…

    A pretty solid 70s rock album could be made if you strung together all of Tommy Shaw's best Styx cuts and nothing else:
    Crystal Ball
    Mademoiselle
    Fooling Yourself
    Man in the Wilderness
    Blue Collar Man
    Renegade
    Boat on the River
    Too Much Time on My Hands
    ah heck, put James Young's "Snowblind" and "Miss America" on there too.
