| NRBQ Immortal for a While Wild Weekend Virgin Records 1989 This was the last attempt to make a radio-friendly NRBQ record, and it's a wild, wacky, wonderful compromise between their genius and the sound that even MTV was about to abandon - I love Tom Ardolino's encounter with the click track and gated drum sound!
