Find a nice live recording of BHTM's Bittersweet and put it in your daily rotation! Even better than this classic.

Love these guys. Possibly the worst band name in history though. Makes me ashamed to discuss them: "Hey you guys hear the new Big Head Todd and the ... forget it." Up there with Toad the Wet Sprocket, and the like.

Feels so darned good to keep seeing and hearing them so long later, still goin' strong! raewah wrote:Our college band!! Still goin strong! Still love Big Head Todd. Still can't forgive KBCO and The Peak for overexposing Bittersweet to the point that I can't stand to hear it anymore. |

Saw Todd and the Monsters live in Norfolk, VA, some years ago, 5 feet away from the stage in an outdoor park. One of those shows that blows away expectations. I really enjoyed their cover of the Nat King Cole song, "Mona Lisa". I've been trying ever since to find a recording of it.

Say it's all right (it's all right)
Say it's all right (it's all right)
It's all right, have a good time
'Cause it's all right, whoa, it's all right-Curtis Mayfield
Just change a few words and notes and it's almost as good as writing your own song.
If they had changed the melody a little more I might not have noticed.

Love it!! Saw them a couple of weeks ago in Charleston. Fantastic show as always, including Hazel Miller on backup vocals. A MUST SEE if they're ever in your area. |
