Smokin' in the Boy's Room 2/3/20

Today's "Great Song of the '70s" is just plain fun! There's nothing even remotely serious about it. It's just an all out rock & roll party song...and that's what makes it "Great!"


In 1974, Cub Koda and Brownsville Station unleashed a hit that...uhh..lit a fire among young record buyers. To keep the puns going, the song really "smoked," and it "burned" up the charts, going to #3 in both the U.S. and Canada, and #7 in France, of all places!


It was Brownsville Station's only hit...but it was so much fun, Motley Crue covered it in 1985 and it hit the charts again: #16 in the U.S. and #19 in Canada. The video of the Crue's version is WAY over the top, which just adds to its cheesy greatness! (Click the links below for both songs!)


Smoke 'em if you got 'em!
