Stealer's Wheel - Stuck In The Middle With You
I've had this song stuck in my head for the past few weeks...not sure why (haven't seen "Reservoir Dogs" in several years!)
Can't believe I found a video for it!
Man, this video has everything... sureal images, trampy 70's chick eating a eclair, fat guy slopping down spaghetti, Jesus on drums, and a bassist who must have shopped at the same place Bootsy Collins bought all his outfits from. It's only missing one thing... Gerry Rafferty. Guess he quit the band after recording this song, they got another guy to lip synch for the promo video, then he rejoined the band later.
Great song.
Enjoy! (even more so if you can find a trampy 70's looking chick to eat an eclair for you while you listen to it!),

The singer is Joe Egan, who was the other vocalist for Steelers Wheel. I don't think its a lipsynch of Rafferty – I've always thought the vocals on this song sounded way different from Rafferty's vocals on "Baker Street" and such, and the fact that the other singer was the primary vocalist would explain a lot.
Anyway, great video – I didn't know bands even did music videos in the early 70s.
