....Cake is an awesome band Ive seen them live in concert 5 times, and every time they release a new CD they just get better and better, Like Beck, They were so far ahead of their time....Its a shame more people dont know their music and can appreciate the great quality.....Even though its an old song Jolene has always been my favorite......Keep up the fantastic work Guys, You Rock !!
What impresses me the most about this particular song and performance is the time in which it was created. These guys were clearly operating on a different frequency in 1994 considering the other music that was being created at that time.
Another thing for die-hard CAKE fans to check out is the Sheep Go To Heaven music video. about 3 minutes in, a cartoon of john can be seen with his hat
AWESOME. by far the oldest CAKE vid i've ever seen, (besides music videos) but it's also one of the best. Greg Brown was very bouncy while playing, wasn't he?
Great stuff. They keep it real tight and tense up until the point where john yells, "Just the guitars!" and then it releases all the tension that was built up. It produces such a fantastic effect. gotta love it.
CAKE is a truly great band due to the fact that after 15 years of playing since they started out and with the changing of the band members that the quality of the music they put out is still the best out there
Wow... look at the babyfaces on John & Vince. Compare them with some of the more recent Cake vids to see the passage of time. It seems like yesterday for us "old farts" who remember when they were still playing tiny clubs in Sactown like Old Ironsides and the Press Club.
I was mortified when I saw that set. Who was your designer, Fred Sanford? The king of the half-dissove still reigns supreme! Let's have more of this, but make sure to keep the mics away from the bell of those horns!
Thank you so much to who uploaded this it's my favorite performance of theirs. I've been watching this vid for years now still brings a lot of joy.

Jeez, look at how young they all are xDDD John and Vince just look like kids here compared to now. John's voice is also a lot deeper.

It seems like john is trying a lot harder to "sing in this vid than any other time I've heard him. I guess this was pre-monotone.

Yeah, just terrific. Prime Cake - they're still good now but Greg Brown and Victor Damiani are such great players, it's a real shame they left.
