This'll always be a summer song for me because I WAS out working on the highway in the summer of '84 just after this album came out.

I'm on a fuckin roll, people.

This one, I was building a retaining wall and fence and my teenage neighbors had a band and played this song in their garage over and over and over. They were pretty good so I enjoyed it.

Harriet is delightful!

Pretty song. Probably accidental but Harriet Wheeler had more than a passing resemblance to Susanna Hoffs too.

 

[Bad Gopher]

I've always loved this one.

 

[Blizzard]

What a voice. Sinatra and the Summer Wind. A great boating song.
