Billy Squier, Esq...


NOTE: This IS a Re-Post With a NEW LINK By Rich (THANKS!)
This Is a Fairly Early one - 1981 - in Squier's career!
He was still doing songs from Tale Of The Tape, Much to my Pleasure...
It was One Of Those Records You Could Play Side 1 - Listen, Play Side 2 - Listen, Repeat As Often As Possible!

He was touring in support of his LP Don't Say No!
I believe this was right before The Stroke Hit BIG!

From Wiki: Perhaps his most enduringly popular song, this was Squier's first single, reaching #17 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100. It was an even bigger hit at rock radio, hitting #3 on the Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks chart. Squier's song even dented the British pop charts, rising to #52. It was named the 59th best hard rock song of all time by VH1.

The song is a reference to the music industry and how musicians are used by an industry wanting more and bigger hits, and the concept of "strokes" from transactional analysis. It is not, as was widely but erroneously believed, about masturbation.


Excellent FM Broadcast from San Fran!
Billy goes back and forth between LPs easily during The Show...
You Should Be High is Billy's Tribute to Led Zep...
And with The Big Beat From The Late Great
Bobby Chouinard (June 26th 1953 - March 8th 1997),
It Simply Sounds Awesome!
