<< I don’t know if Gary Pig Gold likes “Panic” by The Smiths (y’know, the song where Morrissey sings “hang the DJ”), but I would not be surprised if he doesn’t after looking at his list of the unsung heroes of rock and roll. Not to spoil anything, but he ignored Madman Mancuso who played the same Buddy Holly record over and over, and was winningly portrayed by Fred Travalena in The Buddy Holly Story. That’s how good Gary’s list is. >> Although I'll admit (brag even?) over having not ever heard, that I can remember at least, a single solitary Smith and/or Morrissey track Mike, I DO vividly recall the Madman's utterly scene-chewing spin in the BH Story (....which I spent the majority of the Summer of 78 watching, at a different Toronto-area theatre, every available Friday night!) So along similarly Hollywood Rock lines I should've included Screamin' Steve from Rock n Roll High School in my survey, I know, but maybe Casey will invite me back for a sequel, Gary "once actually covered the Archies classic Bang Shang a Lang in his circa-Buddy Holly Story combo" Pig
