For you union folk PLEASE scrap some of our classics and check on Bostons "Street Dogs" This is the real deal, front man's resume reads punk singer who left Dropkick Murphy's (nother great union band) to be a Boston Firefighter, called up to serve in Desert Strom, came back and decided he had MUCH more to say, so after more time in fire house went back to music. Theyre cover of Billy Braggs "Power In A Union" is timeless-though if you have a conservative caucus they might be pissed by lyric "When the GOP send their attorneys out to cheat us". MYSpace them NOW!!
Done.

didnt know there were any southside fans here, graham parker put out album in late 70's that was a killer, cant remember the name now
i had it before anyone did and played it day after day in this bar in McCall Idaho, everybody there thought I was a genius for discovering this music
It was "Squeezing Out Sparks". I had it on vinyl too. Here's a couple of vids from that:
