Since The Knack hijacked a Pong thread, I thought they should have their own.

“ The late 1970s was a brilliant time for music.”

Only if you weren’t alive in the 60s.

We all hated that song in high school. We had local garage bands play in the quad on Fridays. The one band stupid enough to play that song was blooded off stage in a hale of milk cartons. A teacher finally unplugged them.

Sharona still has it going on. The song (the album cut) included one of the best guitar solos you could ask for.

Great song. Great band.

a strange sub-genre of rock ‘n’ roll was also starting to come together: power pop.

Power pop was already around for several years: The Foundations, Raspberries, Badfinger and even Wings would qualify. All early ‘70s.

Good song but I’m a Ramones fan especially since Johnny Ramone was a staunch conservative.

“Good Girls Don’t (But I Do)” was a better song IMHO.

Interesting to see this discussion. Is there anything more subjective than music people prefer?

“Running down the length of my thigh” and “I like the touch of the younger kind” was pretty edgy for the time.
