Patricia,

"Squeeze Box" was done by the Who. It reached the charts on 11/29/75 and
then peaked at #16 in 1976. It was on MCA 40475 (45RPM)

Nope, it's The Who. Can't remember right now, though, which album it's
from.

Cheers,

I want to know who sings the song, "Mama's got a squeezebox, Daddy
never sleeps at night." Someone told me it was The Who, but that
doesn't seem right. Maybe it's Guess Who ??

thanks for your help.

The Who is correct. Squeezebox is on WHO By Numbers. I'm not sure if its
primarily Pete or Roger singing.

It is possible you may have heard a cover version by someone however.

You probably should have listened:]] It's the Who and the album I found it
on is "The Who by the Numbers"

Har-Har-Hardy-Har-Har.
Did you make that up? I've never heard that one before :-).
Actually, I have a step daughter named Dawn, and thanks, she's doing fine.

Ostensibly, a...@def.ghi (Frank Orlando) said this:

Frank. I was wondering something. Does Defi's name mean anything?
I e-mailed and asked but got no answer. I thought perhaps you knew?

Hey You!--Yeah You--Mr.SpamHead!.. You're a Goddamn liar..
It's You That didn't answer "My" E-Mail" that *You* requested..
So like I told you before--"When you "Talk Around" instead of"To"
people"---"You're Just Another Snyping Ass"--and in your case-
you're starting to Approach "NG Record" for "Blue-Whale Rectum"

There's 2 other things I've got to say to you also-
But they both start with the letter 'F'

Whoa...
There's definatley some history there that I don't know about...'cause nobody
can drink THAT much caffine. Anyway defi, I assume you were'nt talking to me.
I took your "Tony Orlando" reference light-heartedly. Hope I didn't give you
any wrong impressions.
E.Smith, no I don't know if defi's name means anything, sorry. I've only tuned
into ths NG about a week ago. I like it by the way, I'm an old rock-band
musician from way back.
So I hope I didn't cause any ill feelings. Talk to you all later.

anthology)

Frank?!--Did Anybody tell you it was "The Who?"-Ha!-ha..

..Well Anyway--
Not A Thing About you - and My Apologies to You for any confusion--but
it is
*cw4"MR.SPAM-HEAD"-4AMBASSADOR/ E. SMITH*-that should be apologizing"TO
ALL". .

This*Fairy*-going by the Alias of"E.SMITH"-with
the'E'-cwMr.Spam...@telepath.com
is a Particular type of "Cheapshot DipShit"--who's intelligence has
never measured-up, and so
"pleasures himself"-by making "Smart-Ass Comments" about other peoples
posts--
(never Face-to-Face)then-"Masquerading" as somebody with Supeior
Intellect.. . Ha!-ha!.. But
She's/He's (I Can't tell which)--anyway....The Banter & and
"METHOD"--"Is as Transparent as
the Banal Comments"----The Real Thing is--After he makes a cheapshot--He
runs off to
masterbate or"SOMETHING"--then when he runs into someone-(like Me)--that
simply
"Exposes the Idiot for what he's about"--"He loses Control"--and goes
into "Angry Tantrums"..
Perhaps it has something to do with his"Mommy didn't Breast-Feed
Him"--or "Daddy didn't
give Him enough Attention when he was a Toddler"--who knows for
sure!!?..Real Problems...
---------------
But in referance to "Your ComBack"-(before this Jerk/E.Smith
butted-in)--
I Just Gotta tell You--I Haven't Had That Good-a-Laugh in a While
for I truly was--"OTFLOL--In Stitches!!"..Haaaa!!!..

Oh-man--that's great!--"Your Daughter is named "DAWN!?!"
"ON-THE-FLOOR.!!."

It's definitely The Who. I think it's on their "Odds 'n Sods" album from the
early '80s

Sure is THE WHO the band that could have made such a great song like
Squeeze Box.
