I think I voted for “I Think We’re Alone Now.”

Used to know a guy who played bass for him. Tommy told him, I believe regarding the bass break in “Crimson and Clover”: “You gotta play that right or you’re fired.”

Speaking of Morris Levy, I highly recommend Tommy’s memoir for an in-depth look at the guy and that side of the business.

Approve of "Hanky Panky"/"Mony Mony" at zero. "Crystal Blue Persuasion" used well in Zodiac...I always notice it; truthfully, right now, I don't remember details. (Maybe in the bar Downey drags Gyllenhaal to?)

0 for "Ball of Fire"?!??!? I didn't vote for it either though. The question surely is why isn't "Sweet Cherry Wine" on this greatest hits album? Or "Mirage". Or "She".

Alone among Tommy James singles I despise "Crystal Blue Persuasion".
