Sometimes the record companies got it right....


After listening to the Duke, Ella, Miles, Eta, Patsy, Ray, Aretha, then there's a twist. Yes, sometimes there's a fork in he road. This fork is Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show. Wait, am I on the Audiogon site? Yes. This is the most underappreciated band that I know of. The song writing is excellent! The FEEL is just right! After listening to this lp, you have a feeling that something really, "just happened"! You've been "Hooked"!

Really, If you're interested, the song writing here is excellent! Give it a couple of listens....

A lot of Dr. Hook's stuff was written by Shel Silverstein, one of the funniest songwriters ever.

If you're into country music, pick up Bobby Bare's, "Drunk and Crazy" and "Down and Dirty" for some great Shel Silverstein songs done by an authentic country artist from the "Outlaw Country" school.
