Cobb wrote the group's most popular song, "Dirty Water", which the band recorded in late 1965. The song's references to the city ofBoston are owed to Cobb's experiences with a mugger in Boston. The song also makes reference to the Boston Strangler and the dorm curfews for college women in those days.[12] " https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Standells
