First time hearing this and kind of dig this shit. Made me laugh.

If any of you hate bands "butchering" songs then you will really hate The Song Butcherers. Coming soon to a clinic near you...dose up.

IS THIS A JOKE???

[airickp]

No band today would have the balls to show up on stage in full Chinese coolie regalia! I am waiting for the rest of the Dig and trying to find my copy of Doug the comic book that came with the album. Thanks!

The Cotton Club when the Coolies were headlining was the shit. Just had to worry about whether your car had been broken into! Always a blast.

Does anybody remember Mercyland? Big in Athens same time period>

That fact that 90% of the responders hate The Coolies version makes me like it even more! It shows that they don't know who The Coolies were, and how they took a tongue-in-cheek approach to covers. Those of us crawling around the Atlanta bar scene in the late 80's were the fortunate ones.

[garebela]

Leave classic songs alone.

[PhilipKonstantine]

what a waste of time...mine and yours. Good luck with that.

[saselstine]

first time hearing this in 13 years, since it got swiped when i lived in las cruces. the moral of the story: never, under any circumstances, visit a trailer park, unless it's named sunnydale.

[Farelbroz135]

It's a joke. Understand the concept?

[guitarmasta27]

better be a joke, or i might shoot myself...

@Farelbroz135 Thanks for uploading this. What happened to these guys? They seemed kind of big and now I can't find anything about them. I thought for sure there would be a Wikipedia page about them. They had some success, at least in the southeast.

[GUNGE13]
