Too bad about the accusations against Sam Llanas that drove the original band apart. Not sure what became of this case. Saw the BoDeans several times back in their heyday and they were a great live act.

Well, as much as it might seem embarassing to some to admit this - (and I don't really believe in embarassment much anyway) - when I'm feeling down or blue or overworked or lonely or .... in a party mood or just plain happy to be alive ....   or just about  ANY wa y, actually, those crazy little bananas always conjure up a smile (and usually also a bit of a dance-along). So there you go. To each her / his own, obviously. I haven't tired of them yet.

Agree that the live version is a bit "better".  But a matter of degrees, I suppose?  

The album is Joe Dirt Car.  I have that version on my "garage rock" playlist on Spotify.  In my garage I can listen to it while damaging my hearing.    I do love this song.

Not sure why, but I've never cared for the BoDeans's sound.  Still, I felt kinda bad for them when they opened for Bob Dylan and Paul Simon way back in 2000.  Seemed like no one except a committed handful of fans were paying them any attention.

Love these guys — from this time period. Saw them (him?) performing live recently in Berkeley CA — and was very disappointed. They have changed their sound, practically blew us out of the place with their volume — not the same BoDeans anymore, sadly. That said, I still like all their old stuff.

Every time I hear the first few clucking notes of the intro i think "Oh man, not this again! Didn't they just play it yesterday, and the day before?" 30 seconds later I'm drumming on the desk and bobbing my head. Thanks for keeping this forgotten classic a little less forgotten.FYI, they do have some other great songs. "Say about love" is responsible for my only speeding ticket, for example.
