Baby talks dirty off the next album ftw. Sick guitar solo. Such a tight band. Killed by the industry because they were billed as “ the next Great band “ and never had the range to get over that huge opening album. Love that album and always thought it was underrated.

The album title "Get the Knack" was a direct and intentional nod to "Meet the Beatles"

Drumming on Get The Knack was fantastic. Bruce Gary was a very very good drummer.

When I sit on the patio in nice weather and reach a certain blood alcohol content, My Sharona gets blasted to the neighborhood. Never gets old.

For my money, it may well be the greatest power pop guitar solo. Absolutely fantastic.

So underrated and under appreciated. Yes, My Sharonna, one of the best guitar solos of all time. The whole album is one of those rare albums in which every song is good. Great band, great album.

this band gets the unfortunate label of one hit wonder
Why do people seem to forget that "Good Girls Don't" was a top 10 hit?

The guitarist - Berton Averre likes men's pee pees.
Good guitarist nonetheless.
