In memory of New York City's alternative radio personality Lynn Samuels. RIP <3

I was named after this song

This should be the new classic Christmas song.
I miss those early 80s days.
Boston was musically incredible from 1974-1996.

@aprilglaspieable Also, a blond guy backup singer named Wendell.
I didn't like everything this band did, am more of a Chuck Berry-Stones-Ramones style rock & roll fan. So Boston bands such as The Lyres and The Real Kids were more my cup of tea.
But HSR had a few hooky songs--this one, "Jackie Onassis," and "What Does Sex Mean To Me?"
And they also did a good cover of "Cool Jerk." Unfortunately for HSR, around the same time, I think The Go-Go's also covered "Cool Jerk."

Rich Gilbert, genius. Larry Bangor a great singer, and the chick backup singers are superb.

as i understand it, this song was about the beer glasses you'd find strewn about fenway park after a game. apparently the glasses were shaped like grenades/pinecones...

I remember seeing them do this song on Evening at the Improv around 81; strange TV moment...still remembered the song 30 years later enough to look this up...
