Dang, hip crowd ;-).
Yeah, I’m big on Pub Rock. Like Graham Parker’s first coupla albums. And I just found Taxi To The Terminal Zone by Ducks Deluxe (also produced by Dave Edmunds) on LP.
And The Groovies are actually still limping along. I was in my great local record store (Music Millennium in Portland) right before the Pandemic hit, and I heard them playing on the store’s sound system. I went up to the main counter to see 1- what album of theirs was playing (I hadn’t heard the song before, and I have all their records, dating all the way back to their self-issued 10" Sneakers, bought in San Jose at the time of it’s initial release in 1968), and 2- who had put it on the turntable.
It turned out to be 1- their new-at-the-time Fantastic Plastic album (Cyril Jordan---great Rock ’n’ Roll name!---and Chris Wilson are the sole remaining members, yet they still sound exactly the same), and 2- put on the player by a 25-year old chick (okay, young woman) employee, a huge Flamin’ Groovies fan. She’s a classically-trained pianist (so much for trained musicians being Jazz or Classical snobs ;-), and real cute taboot! Made me wish I had been born later ;-( .
