Jeff Tamarkin, Creem, November 1984
EVEN IF YOU'VE never heard Greg Kihn's music, you probably know who he is he's the character who comes up with dumb puns on his own name for most of his album titles. Let's see, so far there's been Next Of Kihn, Rockihnroll, Kihntinued, Kihnspiracy, and the latest, Kihntagious. What's next? Workihn In A Coal Mine? How long Kihn this go on?
