@thedonz5 this presents an excuse to recall one of my favourite wacky titles and covers from Dave's Book Club: On The Road With Claus Von Bulow And Tom Carvel. Maybe you remember it, too.
Claus von Bulow, cleared in attempted murder of wife, dieshttps://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/claus-von-bulow-cleared-attempted-murder-wife-dies-212943136.html …

If I recall correctly, the other classic title in that night's segment was Womens Be Thinkin' Too Much, by Ike Turner.

Thank you again, Don! If anyone should apologize it's me for implying an obligation to you...great fun, thanks.

It always astounds me the details people remember.

I know you're occasionally in touch with that era's writers; they can be proud that their crazy funny stuff inspired many mid-'80s college students - some of whom themselves became writers - and that much of the humour stays in our memories to this day.

This is why I'm foremost a fan and nothing more. It's a kick to have gotten to "know" some of those who created this beast. It's almost like @Willbassboy growing up to the Beatles and then end up playing with them.

I'd like Will to know that some of us first learned of classics like "Soul Finger" and "When You Walk In The Room" and MANY others from he and the great World's Most Dangerous Band playing them as the show went to a break.

The Searchers! Of course. That opening riff was so recognizable yet so elusive. Thanks!!
