RIKKI DON'T LOSE THAT RIFF

Some of you have heard this song a million times. But more of you know the opening riff from somewhere else. Fuckin' Steely Dan. Did they play us for patsies? Shit, who knows, they may have credited Silver in one way or another. All I know is that a stashed a 99 cent beat up copy of the Silver LP is in the bins of the local wax shop and I better remember to go get it this weekend. I should have snagged it the first time. But, noooo, I was Mr. I Don't Want To Carry it Home. Such the hack digger.
