I’ve always been a fan of Hootie & the Blowfish. Don’t ask me why, because I don’t know. I just know I am. I think about the only thing of theirs that I don’t own is their demo EP called “Kootchypop”.

I know you’ve all heard the stuff on the radio, because you couldn’t turn on the radio in the 90s and there not be a Hootie & the Blowfish song playing. But most of the stuff on their six albums that didn’t get radio play is a hundred times better, such as these two gems from the 1998 Hootie & the Blowfish album “Musical Chairs“:

“Desert Mountain Showdown”

“Bluesy Revolution”

I’m fairly certain I over-Hootie’d the Husbear in the 14+ years we’ve been together.

He’ll get over it. 😉
