I could just hear him talking about Doug. I remember playing the Elvis Birthday Bash at the Henry Fonda Theater, and I'm talking to Doug for about 40 minutes about rock n roll. I go find Barr as we were supposed to go onstage and I'm telling him about this guy Doug I met. He said, Yeah Britt, that's doug Feiger from The Knack! Well, I was just jawdropped that some one so influential in my youth was talking to me like I'm just one of the guys. No pretense, just a nice human being. And yeah, Marie's The Name just kicked ass.

The late '90s/early aughts garage-rock boom, while not instantly related, certainly had some strands of DNA from The Knack, most notably The Hives' "Hate To Say I Told You So" and to a lesser extent The White Stripes' "Fell In Love With A Girl" - Unquestionably OK Go has to admit the band has an influence on the very-Knacky "Here It Goes Again".

Remastered, & with bonus tracks & nice packaging. I think they're all OOP except for "Get The Knack", though. But you can find 'em used easily enough.
