The only Huey Smith that comes to mind is RnB pianist Huey "Piano" Smith,
one of the RnB artist who paved the way for rock 'n' roll in the late 40s
& early 50s.  Best known for tunes like "Rockin' Pneumonia (and the Boogie
Woogie Flu)".  No relation to Patti Smith, or to Kate Bush for that matter.

Parenthetically, does anyone else have problems with duplicate messages?
I saw at least 4 instances of J. Drukman's last "Praise Kate" message.
Is our site just screwed up (we get this list as a Usenet newsgroup, btw)?
