Was pricing a record this morning by Cathy Berberian and remembered her name from a Steely Dan song.One google search later I found this:http://www.steelydandictionary.com/Music people are a strange breed.

"A city in New Jersey, about 10 miles north of New York City, population 42,000. (Also a small town in Minnesota.) Used to be thought of as the "Hell's Kitchen" of New Jersey, but since gentrified. Not particularly famous for anything, but everyone knows it's there. Perhaps its closest brush with fame was its memorable namecheck in the Billy Joel song Moving Out: "Who needs a house out in Hackensack-ack-ack-ack-ack-ack??""
I go there every summer, the town in Minnesota...records
