NRBQ was a huge favorite of mine in college in the late 70s, pre-Seed...they had a great hippie vibe and a great album, Scraps and Workshop...why the song "Magnet" didn't become a hit I'll never know...
They have continued to put out interesting and sometimes great music...I saw them at Wilbert's in Cleveland about 10 years ago and they were fantastic, one of the best shows I've ever seen.
