After watching your reaction to Jessica, I came up with a poll suggestion. How about other songs with "J" girl's names? Jane - Jefferson Starship Josie - Steely Dan Jackie Blue - Ozark Mountain Daredevils Janie's Got a Gun - Aerosmith Jenny/867-5309 - Tommy Tutone Or you can just do any girl's names. Other suggestions: Angie-Rolling Stones, Christine Sixteen - Kiss, My Sharona - The Knack

I was so blown away the first time I heard this song I still remember where I was when I heard it. It was my sophomore year in high school and I'd snuck off campus to go to a hoagie shop with friends. I was playing on a pinball machine waiting for my order when the song came on. That was 1973 and it's 48 years later and the song still kicks ass.

The singer, Gerry Rafferty, was Scottish so pronunciations may be because of that. Steeler's Wheel was a one hit wonder, but Gerry was pretty much them, and he went on solo to do some big hits. Try "Baker Street" or "Right Down the Line." RIP Gerry.

@@kellycook3751 McCartney only produced one single for Badfinger, "Come and Get It" (which he also wrote), plus a couple of other songs for the film *The Magic Christian* (which starred Ringo, by the way). George Harrison produced part of an entire album (*Straight Up*) for Badfinger, including "Day After Day" (on which Harrison played one of the slide guitar parts). The other part, including the album's other hit, "Baby Blue", was produced by Todd Rundgren. The Beatles comparisons are really unfair. Yeah, Badfinger did get input from three of the four Beatles (Lennon coined the band's name), and they were on the Beatles' label, Apple Records -- but they were a great band in their own right, and they deserved so much better than the shoddy way that they were treated by labels and the outright theft of their money by their manager that uiltimately led to the dual tragedies of losing two members of the band to suicide.

One of the enduring pop masterpieces of the 70's, It's a parody of Dylan songs, but whatever I could listen to this every day and never get tired of it. This was Stealers Wheel's only big hit, but lead singer Gerry Rafferty of course went on to do one of the iconic songs of all time in Baker Street. A really awesome singer songwriter who left us too soon.

As mentioned, STAR was a minor hit by Stealers Wheel. The song 🎵 has a very Beatle-esque sound ... at least to me. It's a short yet pleasant song. If you decide to with a Rafferty song, go with Somewhere Down The Line ... his second biggest hit.

This song was inspired by a party that the band attended for their record label, fully of "clowns" and "jokers" from the industry who had no idea about the music. Lead singer, Gerry Rafferty, later had some of the iconic hits of the 1970s as a soloist: "Baker Street", "Get it Right Next Time", and "Right Down the Line" - all of which demand to be reviewed. Stealers Wheel had a few minor hits, like "Star" and "Everything Will Turn Out Fine", but "Stuck in the Middle" was huge.

I even pitched their live album "stage pass". Afterwards. Not something I would normally do. They were from cleveland where michael stanley became a very well known DJ. One of the top songs I liked off the album was midwest midnight. Saddened to hear this news. After all these years, their persona and rapport with the public was a class act.
