Watched this old documentary on the Knack the other night. Always one of my favorite bands when I was a youngster. I wrote a paper in business school about their mismanagement (and even got to talk to Jack Douglas on the phone while researching it)..

I feel they were criminally underrated- they were awesome musicians and were the second-best power pop band of the late 70's/early '80's (behind Cheap Trick).

Any of you folks remember these guys? What did you think about them?

Get The Knack is one of my favorite albums. I wore the cassette (or maybe it was 8-track) out in high school.
