This came out in the early 70's when $10K was great money. They had fun. Not long after this hit, and they were put on the cover of the Rolling Stone. Try when You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman or Baby Makes Her Blue Jeans Talk.

They did finally get on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine. But it wasn't their picture--it was a caricature drawing (like what you'd get done by a street artist at the beach). But you can still tell it's them. Rolling Stone is still around & still very relevant in the music world. They're just a little more online now. But they're still active.

Only three of the seven band members were in the picture. Also, the band’s name didn’t appear. Next to the picture it just says, “What’s-Their-Names Make The Cover”. But they did make the cover, which back then was huge. My guess is they weren’t the only ones who bought that issue for that very reason.

The rolling Stone was a music magazine and as a musician. When you're picture finally landed on the cover of the rolling Stone, you knew you had finally made it. And of course, they got their picture on the cover of The Rolling Stones. Many times they're a very good group and wait till you're dig into a bit. They got some really cool songs..

As a few others have noted "Rolling Stone" was a big time music/political magazine started in the 60's and I think its still being published today. Eventually, Dr. Hook and The Medicine Show did get their picture on the cover of the "Rolling Stone". As a drawing. Also by Dr. Hook: "Sylvia's Mother".

These guys are Awesome!!! "Sexy Eyes", "Sylvia's Mother", "When You're In Love With A Beautiful Woman" "Sharing the Night Together". Dennis Locorriere is the singer with the long beard mustache, George Cummings is the lead guitarist with the bass voice (also founded and came up with the name of the group), Ray Sawyer is the singer with the eye patch. They're all Incredible! Ray suffered an eye injury after he was involved in a car accident. He sadly, passed away in 2018 (82). RIP Ray.

"The Rolling Stone" magazine was almost entirely devoted to the Rock Band, and artist news of the day. Who was coming out with a new album and when, who just got busted for dope, or who was getting sued by someone for doing something crazy etc. It was actually a really informative magazine for us Rock fans, to get the inside scoop on the crazy stuff happening in the world of Rock music. If you got your picture on the cover of an issue, it could mean millions of dollars and superstardom. You could go from nobody knowing who you were, to everyone knowing you the next day. This is just a funny little song about them wanting to be on the cover, which after this song, I think they were.

I Saw All the Great Bands of the 60s and 70s Live, but the Best Concert ever was Dr Hook. It was hard to tell who was more High, the Band or the Audience? They were actually All Great Musicians, but they had Fun playing live. This is a "Spoof" on the Glamorous Life of Rock Stars...The Rolling Stone, was the Premiere Rock Magazine, getting on the Cover was Big Time,,which they eventually did...try the following songs by Dr Hook: I Got Stoned and I Missed It, Everyone's Making it But Me, Sylvia's Mother, She was Only 16, Queen of the Silver Dollar, Freaking out at the Freakers Ball....

I think they were making fun of the magazine. Rollling Stone magazine was huge back in the good times. They eventually made the cover, but it was in caricature and not the whole band. A few years before the band's formation, Ray 1:28 Sawyer lost his right eye in a car accident; Sawyer wore an eyepatch that made him resemble the Peter Pan villain Captain Hook, which served as the inspiration for the Dr. Hook moniker.
