June 15, 2009 Earworm



When old favorites attack, nothing can stop them. Not even knowing that it's not a particularly good record. Actually, I take that back: "Wham Bam" by Silver is actually a pretty good record, beautifully crafted and produced, it's the song itself that's a bit weak. But, that hasn't stopped me from playing it on a regular basis for the last thirty odd years.

Silver went as quickly as they came, never able to follow up the minor success of the one hit they got after the song was forced upon by co-producer Clive Davis. The rest of the album, filled with the band's own songs, explains why.
