-To Idle Thumbs, the brilliant video game podcast that played this song (Episode 47: Lord of the Donk), bringing its audience and in-jokes to this page.
-To Power Pop Heroes, the now-defunct website that offered this record (and other out-of-print vinyl rips) for download.
-And, of course, The Toons. I'm 30 years behind the times here, but Looking at Girls remains an incredibly fun album.
I remember seeing them a lot in the early 80's and my recollection was that John was playing a DX7 (featured also in the movie Monsters vs Aliens-Thank you Cliff Claven)
I just went ahead and bought the Vinyl album of this band. The description said "brand new never played before" and it was only $10. I think I got a really good deal for something so rare...
I think I remember that band from when I was a little kid, I sure do remember hanging out with them all the time with my dad, the guitar player. I was only 3 or 4 back then but boy did we have fun.
Oh, I can't believe my eyes! I used to drive all over the place to see these guys. I even have the "Live" album with the booklet autographed by the whole band. Even got embarrassed by Parker sitting in my lap a couple of times. Wow, what a treat to find this on here!
Three huge "thank you"s.

One of the Toons here. Don't know what John was playing. You may be right about it being a DX7. I'll have to ask him!
