Walks Like A Lady
"Walks Like a Lady" is a song written by Steve Perry that was first released by his band Journey on their 1980 album '' Departure''. It was also released as the second single from the album and reached No. 32 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100. It also reached #31 in Canada. Music and lyrics ''Ultimate Classic Rock'' described the writing of the song, saying that "Perry brought in a rough sketch, ealSchon added a blues-inspired uitarriff, then teveSmith picked up his brushes," and then reggRolie added his "Hammond B3 groove." Critics and the band have disagreed on the classification of "Walks Like a Lady". During concerts in 1980, Perry used to introduce the song by asking if anyone wants to hear the blues. ''Boston Globe'' correspondent Jim Sullivan, who described the song as "semi-blues" found the audience's confused reaction to that introduction humorous. ''Citizen's Voice'' critic Jerry Kishbaugh accepted the Perry's classification and described Journey's playing on the s ...

Bob Dylan
Bob Dylan (legally Robert Dylan, born Robert Allen Zimmerman, May 24, 1941) is an American singer-songwriter. Often regarded as one of the greatest songwriters of all time, Dylan has been a major figure in popular culture during a career spanning more than 60 years. Much of his most celebrated work dates from the 1960s, when songs such as "Blowin' in the Wind" (1963) and " The Times They Are a-Changin' (1964) became anthems for the civil rights and antiwar movements. His lyrics during this period incorporated a range of political, social, philosophical, and literary influences, defying pop music conventions and appealing to the burgeoning counterculture. Following his self-titled debut album in 1962, which comprised mainly traditional folk songs, Dylan made his breakthrough as a songwriter with the release of ''The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan'' the following year. The album features "Blowin' in the Wind" and the thematically complex " A Hard Rain's a-Gonna Fall". Many of his s ...
