Song of the Day # 494 The Knack

 
“Our songs have the standard pop format: verse, chorus, verse, chorus, solo, bad solo. All in all, we sound like the Knack and the Bay City Rollers being molested by Black Flag and Black Sabbath.” Kurt Cobain
 
Cobain listed Get The Knack amongst his favourite 50 albums. To be honest having listened through to it the other day at work, not all of it stands the test of time too well with the obvious exception of My Sharona, the one song of theirs that hit big in the UK. This though, the opening track on the record, sounded ok to me too.
