Who’s working hard, who’s hardly working? There’s no question regarding this performance by The Peddlers. Like they’ve done with this kinetic cover, put your own thing into Rock Town Hall through this All-Star Jam!
Lord help me, I love those Peddlers, the living embodiment of “a tight little combo”. Is that Gerry Todd doing the intro?
Majorly groovy. Lyrics by Hal David, it says. This doesn’t have live footage, but it’s them doing more of a Tom Jones-ish thing with an Irving Berlin song:

Good call on Gerry Todd, db! I kept thinking that guy was a certain type, but I couldn’t put my finger on which type that was.
It’s like Vanilla Fudge, but with talent.
This is rich:
Sammy, That cat is so far up his own rectum, he should just change his own name to Mr. “Smashing Pumpkins”, or “Smashy McPumpkinhead” or something. Maybe he’ll re-cut “Alone Again, Naturally”, or, more suitably “Splendid Isolation”, without any of the pesky ironic undertones Zevon had in mind when he wrote it.
