Hugs & Misses: Buck Jones

 He sings—even went to school for it.  But he and his producers sure know how to pick songs worth listening to.  Attention Don Imus: the track “You Only Call Me” deserves to be one of those “bumpers” on your radio show (Imus takes songs, often country, and plays the coolest portion of them, ending the segment with his “Imus in the Morning” jingle).  “You only call me when you’re drunk/you only call me when you’re down/Some other guy leaves you high and dry/It’s the only time when you want me around.” (Disclosure: I do a little work for a radio company that broadcasts Imus.)  Lucky Star is performing well on the Americana charts as I write this, and deservedly so.  Four out of four bottle caps from these furry ears.
