That's one of my favorites, they're still playing around Toronto.

Here's another good one, Billy Thorpe Children of the Sun.

Switching to Glide was most definitely a hit, still a KSHE classic.

yeah but KSHE played a lot of great tunes that no one has ever heard of if they didn't grow up in Sf. Louis.

That's for sure, KSHE was instrumental in the advance of a lot of bands. Most people don't realize the the Allman Bros got their break playing in St Louis.

Not that I've noticed, but I can stream KSHE out of St Louis.

Matthew · Feb 16, 2014

I don't have any reason to go to St Louis anymore, but i think I might still have a radio preset for KSHE.

Nah,, that prize...thus far...goes to the star land vocal band, or the convoy movie song, both equally as bad as the other.

Great band but definitely not a one hit wonder. "Nature's way" was probably a bigger hit than "I got a line".

Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus us was a great album.

Edit: I just looked it up and I'm wrong, "I got a line" climbed higher in the charts than "nature's way". I truly believe the latter has withstood the test of time far better though.

although they might be considered a two-hit wonder:

These are suppose to be "One hit wonders" .... Not "Played Once" And forgotten.

timwinters · Feb 16, 2014

Probably too obscure to actually be a one hit wonder. Another KSHE classic. You've probably never heard of it if you didn't grow up in St. Louis or Chicago in the 70s or early 80s. Freaking great song!

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=0saZiLV7-7E

Edit: BTW, Jeremiah, of "Aliotta-Haynes-Jeremiah" was indeed the "Jeremiah" who "was a bullfrog" and "who was a good friend of mine".

Another KSHE classic from the area, luckily Stages didn't ask for ID when Mama's Pride was playing.
