That was a great episode. I only know a few Knack songs, but what they played I really liked. I'm definitely checking some of their stuff out.

It seems obvious, but start with "Get The Knack". As Jimmy said, it's just a perfect pop/rock album. I wish I could remember who wrote this, but someone once said the key to the greatness of "My Sharona" was that they "beat the **** out of that song". I'd say that applies to this whole album...very "live" sounding & in your face. Energy & attitude to spare.

Secondly, I'd go with the album that Pat mentioned as his favorite - "Zoom", from the mid-90's. Probably their second-best collection of tunes. Even though that snare drum sound drives me as nuts as it does some of the band members.
