 Like most bands, the DKs were good for the occasional cover. They made some big waves with send-ups of "Viva Las Vegas" and the theme from "Rawhide", and their 1986 album Bedtime for Democracy features this spirited version of the David Allen Coe standard "Take This Job and Shove It."

Introduction
Some of my online cohorts at the Songfight community decided to create blogs to highlight songs they like. I am now doing it as well, because I am a total lemming.
Songfight is a weekly songwriting competition based on titles provided by the site's administrators. I post there under the handle "Albatross." Go check it out. It's a gas. My Own Noise
Can't sing my way out of a wet paper bag, but I play a few instruments with varying degrees of proficiency. As such, sometimes I record my own music. You can hear it here.
