Supersuckers, Play That Rock 'n' Roll

I’m grinning.
All eleven herbs and spices are present and accounted for, the oil in the fryer is fresh, and this is hands-down the tastiest basket of chicken-fried rock ‘n’ roll I’ve had in ages.

And Eddie Spaghetti — how does this guy keep the back alley wordplay so fresh? “That’s A Thing?” somehow manages to further mine the Dad Rock hilarity of “What’s Up (With This **********ing Thing?)” so now I’m holding out hope for a triptych. And I’m guessing he’s the genius who resurrected Allen Toussaint’sA Certain Girl” — a song that gets all its traction from the evident fun everybody’s having while performing it.

America, this man and his band are a national treasure.

Get Play That Rock 'n' Roll here.
