Did he have any other hits or was he a one-hit wonder? I like the Foo's version. I have an mp3 of them doing it.

I always loved the saxophone riff in that song! I still whistle it from time to time.

Didn't know the Foo Fighters covered it. That's pretty cool.

Oh yea, I remember that song. So he's a 2-hit wonder? Was he a guitar guy, like Gary Moore or something?

Actually Gerry Rafferty is a 3 hit wonder. He hit the top 40 with this song also. It's pretty catchy. I always liked Gerry Rafferty. How good of a scene is it in the movie "Good Will Hunting" with the song "Baker Street"?

I abhor Baker Street, the sax riff hits a nerve hell, musically it all hits a nerve. Right Down The Line is a great song but aside from his 3 hits I've never listened to him.
