I never thought that the day would come where I would actually go to a Kiss fansite, but Kissfaq.com actually had some interesting info on the LP that 5$S recorded before this great track....
Is alleged to features Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley on backing vocals, BUT this has not been substantiated. Five dollar Shoes was: Gregg Diamond (drums, percussion, vocals), Tom Graves (keyboards, vocals), Jim Gregory (bass, vocals), Mike Millius (harmonica, vocals), and Scott Woody (guitar, vocals).
Now I'm not gonna hold the possible Kiss connection against 'em, because this one great track! T-Rex female backin' vocals, check, Dolls-ey style boogie, 'nother check, and one cool-ass chord progression (you'll know what I mean when ya' hear it).
Look to the top right corner to get this Gem of JSG!
