I used to cover Brownsville Girl pretty regularly...
"They Killed Him" and "License To Kill" are on Knocked Out Loaded, aren't they? And the album title maybe comes from "Junko Podner"... just a guess... I am less familiar with Down In The Groove, I have heard it but couldn't tell you offhand what tunes are on it |

See since I've started talking about 'Empire Burlesque' & 'Knocked Out Loaded', I took them in when I was on the nightshift last night and listened to them both about 2 or 3 times each. I came to the conclusion that although they are both great albums, 'Knocked Out Loaded' is definitely the best. Best tracks on Empire Burlesque- 'Tight Connection To My Heart', 'I'll Remember You', 'Clean Cut Kid', 'Trust Yourself' 'Emotionally Yours'. Best tracks on Knocked Out Loaded- 'You Wanna Ramble', 'They Killed Him', 'Driftin' Too Far From The Shore', Precious Memories' (which has a reggae feel to it), 'Brownsville Girl', 'Got My Mind Made Up' (which he actually wrote with Tom Petty). As for where the title of the album originates, I have no idea, but I remember vaguely reading something similar to what you said. 'They Killed Him' is on 'Knocked Out Loaded' but as for 'Liscense To Kill'- thats from 'Infidels' which is another great album. (which was produced with Mark Knopfler & I think he perhaps plays on a couple of the tracks). Personaly, 'Desire' & 'Blood On The Tracks' aside, I think the 80s was his most consistent period & definitely the period I listen to most/perhaps on par to present. ![]() Down With The Groove is alright like but not really worth talking about much. Theres some funny songs like 'Ugliest Girl In The World' but nothing special. ![]() |
