Nigel Pickering an Spanky McFarlane of the sixties vocal group Spanky and Our Gang performing Michael Smith's "Commercial" from their Greatest Hits. The song is a pot culture and Dr.Demento favorite, ode to marijuana and garbage men performed at Curleyfest 2003 in Ferndale, California.
@turbo1964 It's available on Spanky's Greatest Hits, which is available at amazon.com. Buy the track or the entire album.
iTunes proprietary format (.m4a) is a shame! It does nothing to protect tracks from being converted to mp3 (the industry standard) and it's merely an inconvenience. Buy mp3s. You can get 'em from amazon.com, and they're less expensive.

They pulled this track from the album on ITunes. What a shame. I have the old LP but would love an MP3 version.

LMAO!
This is great!
"Commercial" is one of SAOG's best songs that never got much airplay for obvious reasons!
The original studio verson is priceless.
