Michael John "Cub" Koda (né Uszniewicz; October 1, 1948 – July 1, 2000)[1][2] was an American rock and roll musician, songwriter, and critic. Rolling Stone magazine considered him best known for writing the song "Smokin' in the Boys Room", recorded by his band Brownsville Station, which reached number 3 on the 1974 Billboard chart.[3]
Offstage, Koda also co-wrote and edited the All Music Guide to the Blues,[4] and Blues for Dummies,[5] as well as selecting the tracks on the accompanying CDs. He also penned liner notes for bands such as the Trashmen, Jimmy Reed, J. B. Hutto, the Kingsmen, and the Miller Sisters.[6]
