In 1978, radio was engulfed in disco and it seemed that the momentum wouldn't stop. But, something else was happening in the clubs of Los Angeles. People were dancing, but to a different beat.

The Knack first took the stage at Whisky a Go-Go on the Sunset Strip. The date was June 1, 1978. What happened over the following months was that of legend. The Knack sold out clubs all over LA. Guests like Springsteen, Petty, Stephen Stills, Eddie Money and Ray Manzarek joined them on stage - and every record label in the country wanted to sign this phenomenon.
