Chuck Berry - "You Never Can Tell"
Aretha Franklin - "Dark End Of the Street"

I guess that Chuck Berry song gets a little play, but not nearly as much as it should. I'll probably come up with another one before long.

That damn "If you wanna be happy for the rest of your life" song...not sure who sings it. Catchy as hell.

Reading this post and doing a dyslexic double-take as to why Todd would call a Buck Cherry track an "oldie" just made me realize where Buck Cherry got their name.
