underrated. tight lyrics and upbeat tunes. Really well-structured songs at a time when only a few seem in full command of the craft: and just the right combination of irony, cynicism and optimistic sunniness. I love this guy.
As some said earlier...........'thank you for putting a great selection of Marshall Crenshaw songs. His songs are truly amazing, inspirational and warming!!!!!!
@southroncross It was just terrific. His song "Some Day, Some Way" had just hit big, and that was the song he opened with. I have to admit that, being 16 at the time, I was woefully unaware of his other work. But I've had a long time to "discover" his great music and talent.
@bluejupiter100 me too; love his jangle pop style, great songs, harmonies, chord changes, etc. very cool guy, great musician
