Best Songs From the Album Tiddly Winks by NRBQ
Tiddly Winks is their most popular album, and it's considered to be one of their best. Their style is a neat mixture of old school rock and roll, jazz, and Beatles-influenced pop.
The best rock and roll song on the album. It has some weird rhythms in the verses that I think are clever.
A jazzy pop tune about a guy who looks up the literal definition of love in the dictionary. It has a really clever chord progression.
This one is a straight twelve bar shuffle. It grooves so well.
A cover of a song by famous jazz musician Tommy Dorsey; it's about playing the trombone or trumpet.
It starts out as a country-style shuffle, but it takes a few weird turns with the chord progression.
It's about a roll call at a high school reunion, showing how everyone changed when they grew up.
It's a reassuring statement from a man to his girl that not even the most rich and famous girl can take her place. Los Lobos recorded a great cover of it.
The first song on the album. It's a song about a man who, even though he works hard to please his girl, can't last a day without her.
It's a soft, acoustic number. I love it.
