I don’t really, but I remember that the guitar part was fairly simple and I could almost play it passably.  How strange that they are what they are now, and that they spawned SO many (poor) imitators.  This wasn’t the first single…in fact it was the last, but for some reason it’s the one that sticks in my mind in relation to the album & radio play.

When I think of Basket Case (wasn’t it the “big” single that blew them up?), for some reason I remember my friend John’s house up the hill…maybe I saw the video there for the first time.

Dookie holds up, I think, as a really strong, consistent piece of work.   “Sassafras Roots” is my favorite track.

Huh, I didn’t (and still can’t) remember “She” as being a single, but I guess it was.  Strange.
