Doing Things Wrong

The Knack

Most people regard The Knack as a novelty act - My Sharona and little more. The truth is, they were a really great band that deserved a lot more respect than they got. Watch this show at Carnegie Hall in 1979 - they are note-perfect and tight. It starts with one of my favorites - Rave Up - a real barn-burner. Load the video in YouTube for the rest of the show.

Here are some later tracks:

They were making a comeback when drummer Bruce Gary passed away in 2006. Singer Doug Fieger died in 2011, effectively bringing the band to an end.

Some people still appreciate them!

First, I am bound to state that I received this pedal at no cost for review. Having gotten that out of the way …

This is the third one of these little pedals that KMise has sent me for review, after the Tremolo and Phase, and I am more than pleased with all three. These KMise pedals are well-built, very quiet, and great sounding. I'm sure there are pedal-snobs out there who will say that nothing under $200 could possibly sound good, but these do. With this line of pedals, you can build up a nice arsenal of effects without going broke!
