I great friend of mine passed away just over a year ago. His favorite band was Dr Hook, but I'd never heard of any of their songs, except "Cover of the Rolling Stones."

After he died, I listened to one or two of their popular albums. I was surprised that his favourite band was a disco band. Ok, maybe they are not a disco band, but a lot of their songs have that vibe.

Anyway, I've since fallen in love with Sylvia's Mother.

Edit: I forgot to add that he was 20+ years older than me, so Dr Hook wasn't quite as popular when I was growing up.

It's my mom's favorite band, probably mine to, if I had to pick one. Sylvia' Mother, Queen of the Silver Dollar, and Carry Me, Carrie are amazing. Freaking at th Freaker's Ball is a banger, too

If you haven't seen it, the playlist of them playing on Shel Silverstein's houseboat is fantastic. Shel, the well known author, can be caught playing harmonica, barefoot, while just hanging out in bed.
