Today's dinner-cooking #music:

"My I'm Large" by The Bobs

I love these guys so much! Back in the early 90s I heard them on the radio while traveling, then when I got home I found information on a new-fangled thing called the "world wide web" about how to order their CDs. We mailed off a check ("Please find enclosed...") and ordered their first four albums.

We listened to these CDs (and others bought as they came out) continuously through the rest of the 20th century.

@catselbow I love The Bobs! Some choir friends and I formed a very rudimentary a capella group after high school (circa 1988 if I remember right). We did a few open mike nights, and roadtripped to a Bobs concert in Massachusetts, where we sang their version of Psycho Killer back at them after their show, and probably made them feel a little uncomfortable, although they were very good-natured about it.

@eedly

Ha! At least you didn't sing their version of Helter Skelter.
