Jimmy and Johnny are two Brooklyn street toughs who never made it into workaday society. However, its image remained as a rather dull, workaday vehicle. During the Terror of 1794, the workaday outfits of the sans-culottes symbolized Jacobin egalitarianism. The saboteurs are thwarted, not by counterintelligence agents, but by workaday London police officers. Workaday, predictable, edited to the bone, "Stryker" is very much a New World yarn. A workaday song with a lilt and a swing. Workaday purposes were not the only ones pursued on the waters. The characters were inspired by real prototypes the creators knew in the workaday world. The band is referred to as a workaday party R&B band by "Billboard".
