Debut record from the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania band.

The debut album from the Philadelphia satirical jokesters. Their original lineup was made up of vocalist/keyboardist Rodney Linderman ("Rodney Anonymous"), guitarist/vocalist Joe Genaro ("Joe Jack Talcum"), bassist Dave Schulthise ("Dave Blood") and drummer Dean Sabatino ("Dean Clean").

Now you can say that you remember where you were the first time Arlie heard this tune.

Cocktail trivia - nobody in the band has actually owned a Camaro.
