That song has always reminded me a Jerry Jeff Walker's "Ramblin Scramblin".Tiki Torches wrote:Todd was one of the first artists signed to Buffett's Margaritaville label back in 1994. Aside from "Beer Run", he's probably best known for "Talkin' Seattle Grunge Rock Blues", a hidden track (that was almost left off altogether) from his debut record, Songs From the Daily Planet. He's since had some of his songs recorded by a variety of other artists including Gary Allan, Cross Canadian Ragweed and Jack Ingram.buffettbride wrote:I'll pick-up that album just have another copy of that song. I don't even know what a Todd Snider is, although I think my brother-in-law's BFF used to do his website.
Not the subject matter but the strumming, structure and fast pace of the song.
Both are kickass tunes imo.
With that said:
