I looked but couldn't find a 'songs' I'm currently listening to' thread. I though we needed one but maybe, to be slightly different, songs you really love or new singles you are playing over and over or can't get enough of...

So. Here's a song that folks on here will either never have heard of (the vast majority of you) or will maybe think, wow, I haven't thought of this song in 40+ years! It was a good-sized hit in a handful of cities, mainly on or around the northeast of the US, and unknown virtually everywhere else.
It's unlike almost any other pop song I know of, in that it seems to be a rhyming minute-by-minute diary entry, with some witty wordplay, a killer melody, a fabulous bassline and "ah-WOO" back vox that never cease to slay. And a growling sax solo! What's not to like?
