I'm not saying that the Violent Femmes nicked something from Round Robin's "Kick That Little Foot Sally Ann" for "Blister In The Sun", I'm just saying that it is impossible for me to hear one without thinking of the other. However, I am saying that P.F. Sloan and Steve Barri definitely nicked something from Calypso via Belafonte when they cooked up "Kick That Little Foot Sally Ann" to feed L.A.'s Slauson jones.
Regardless, "Blister In The Sun" is a classic for a generation - and for analysis - and "Kick That Little Foot Sally Ann" is... well, catchy as hell and notable for it's Jack Nitzsche arrangement and for being a far cry from other Sloan/Barri songs.
Does anyone know how to do the Slauson?
