I owned a white vinyl version. I dug it and it was certainly something I listened to a fair amount. there just happened to be so many artists, bands and albums I obsessed over during the eighties. </p><p>I love their version of Everybody’s Got Something to Hide (Except Me and My Monkey) for The Beatles White Album. sometime I after I aged into being a genuine Beatles fan which did not begin to take hold until my late twenties. I never disliked The Beatles, but I never bought any of their records so my experience with listening to them was quite a bit random. I never took that deep dive.</p><p>The Feelies were one of those bands that you had to dig a little bit deeper to discover. since I was always digging at the time they were an obvious discovery for someone like me, but they easily could have been one of those bands that would have fallen through the cracks for me. for example, one would assume that I fully checked out The Fall, as a number of my friends at the time did. I did not. I guess it’s impossible to listen to everything. one of the things that fascinates me about music is that I could listen to music every waking hour and never hear all of the music that has been created that I would love given the right circumstances.</p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/1000DayAlbumChallenge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>1000DayAlbumChallenge</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/TheFeelies" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TheFeelies</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/CrazyRhythms" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CrazyRhythms</span></a></p>
