Our biggest selling record. "By My Side" was a chalypso (cha-cha, calypso blend), and hit the Nifty Top Fifty in the capitol of rock in Iowa, Waterloo, where KWWL reigned supreme. The flip side was called "Chimay", named one evening in my girlfriend's living room. We were looking for a name for this great instrumental, and Flick grabbed an encyclopedia off the shelf, ran his finger down, and it rested on a little town in Portugal called Chimay. No rocket science involved.
