Look at What the Cat Dragged On
The first time I saw The Spinto Band live, they opened with this song. And rocked a very small house. The East End Cafe in Newark, DE.
December 2003 if I remember correctly. Or earlier maybe. Two members of the band were still in high school.I'm going to see them again tonight. In Washington, DC. At a more substantial venue. And I'm pretty sure they won't play Kind of a Girl. Which is a small bummer. But, someday, when they're truly big and famous, they'll get back into the old stuff. They'll want see what the fans saw in the beginning. They'll want to remember moments like this:Sorry I don't have any solutionsBut I admire your problems
Though I can't tell if they're from the heart or
Just a conversation starter Gotta respect a rhyme like that.Kind of a Girl is not on either of Spinto's "real" label-released albums. I have it on a compilation that's been drifting through my family since we first got to know the band. We label the burned CDs Nashville Recordings. Kind of a Girl is track 13, but, given that show at East End, I'll always think of it as a track 1.
