This is a band to see LIVE. You should check out their DVD if you can't catch a show. They are wildly entertaining. That being said, La Cucaracha is my least favorite album of theirs. Everything else they have done is better in my opinion.

Enjoyed your well-done review, TJ, and I'm sure I'll enjoy the album as well. I'll pass up on the clear shots at Mark that are there for the taking becuase I don't want to distract from that point ;&)

You just don't know good music, Saleski.

hmmm. well, it's well known that i'm mostly not a lyrics guy. so despite this band obviously being all of the place with the musical diversity thing, none of it seems all that compelling.

The Mollusk is a favorite among some fans, but not this one. Just too much sea-shantiness going on there. C&C and Pure Guava, however, are a couple of my faves, and this one's got some pretty good stuff that's more along those lines. I'd be surprised if there wasn't a good helping of songs you'd really like throughout their catalog, Mark. I can't believe you wouldn't dig "Fiesta," certainly - give it a listen on the player up there. As we've discussed before, I'm not a big fan of Zappa's scatological humor, and yet I like these guys a lot.

am i supposed to like this band? i bought The Mollusk because i heard "The Blarney Stone" on the radio...and listened to the whole thing exactly twice. it seemed like watered down Zappa, but only the jokey Zappa, which i never liked much anyway.
