Cracklin' Rosie missed the 60's by a few months; close enough.
 
These guys seem to take a lot of influence from the 1960's - like their band name for starters.  Bah-bahs can be good - I agree, and I guess Cracklin' Rosie was close enough to that era as well. {#Wink}

C'mon, there's always room for "bah-bahs", and "Cracklin' Rosie" was not released in the 1960's.

Perhaps I wasn't clear . . . I love all three bands. It's just the names that are silly beyond belief. Sometimes bands come up with awesome names (Metallica leaps to mind) and sometimes . . . not.

This (DCFC) is probably one of the top three dumb band names around, along with the Toad mentioned above. The last leg of the stupid tripod is Arctic Monkeys.

Didn't Neil Innes also write all the songs for the Rutles?

I love Bonzo Dog Band! RP should have "Hello Mabel" on the playlist!

Their best album by far, though I prefer The Postal Service project. Funny how much they can sound like Semisonic, of all bands.

Two years ago I shared an office with a guy who would not stop playing this song. Over and over and over. Gah.

I must admit it's better than what I'm used to from DCFC, but still does not go beyond a 4

Top notch pop. Don't like the genre but this is too much. Good album also not exactly in the same vein.
