I was gonna write up a sentence or two about each track, but I'm much too lazy.
Maybe later

My Sharona has one of the most underrated guitar solos ever.

My Sharona was huge but solid all around album. IIRC people hated them cause they were billed as the next Beatles or something?

The lead singer's little brother is an extremely successful defense lawyer back in Michigan.

I agree, but still not the best song on the album.

Love when a radio station randomly plays the long version instead of the short single release for sure

From his Wikipedia:

Fieger has been involved with a variety of high-profile or controversial cases. In 1994, he represented Jack Kevorkian in the first of several doctor-assisted suicide trials. Kevorkian was acquitted in that trial and all subsequent trials where Fieger represented him. (Kevorkian was convicted when he represented himself in his last assisted suicide trial in 1999.) These events were made into a movie, You Don't Know Jack, aired on HBO, in which Fieger was portrayed by actor Danny Huston.

You can sure see the resemblance.

 

[FairWarning]

I should start listening to it now, have a class reunion next weekend and I'm sure My Sharona gets played.

Great album. They knew they were gonna get a creeper label and were playing with fire about their subject matter. Still, it's really well-done power pop.
