I can't remember if I mentioned this years ago when I found out, but was rocking out to this tune the other day and thought I'd post about it.
This song actually derives from my hometown, Pittsburgh's-own Granati Brothers. You may know them as "G-Force," one of VH's opening acts in the early '80s. I always liked this song so much and one day decided to try search again to see if it's a cover or not (which I had done before a few times), and came across:
I THINK, if I remember correctly, when I e-mailed one of the guys they said they wrote it for Dave but wasn't aware it was on Dave TV.
Here's the live version:
I seen that dude singing locally before a few times at the dueling piano bars. Very good entertainer from what I remember. They all seem to be. I guess they used to be acrobatic back in their heyday opening for our boys. More acrobatic than Diamond Dave though? Couldn't be possible.
I guess they got Gregg Bissonette plaing on their most recent album, too.
I don't know why, but I love that song. Always have since I heard it first in the late '90s on his web show.
Oh, and also "Tramp" was by some band called Stray Dog.
