These guys used to promote their band by putting ads in Billboard Magazine. I remember the ads from back in the day.

Wow, nothing about this band anywhere, other than a couple of discs for sale. It's so rare that there is no Discogs listing.
Good ska/punk stuff.
So rare that I used to go to all of the shows back in these days and I never heard them at the time. I never saw them live and never found a CD in any of the local shops. I remember their ads in Billboard which was a clever move on their part - not that it gained them proper recognition at the time, but at least one old ska-punk nerd from back in the days remembers them from those ads.
I was looking for something on eBay and I came across one of their CDs and I went "Whoa... is this the band from those old ads with the cartoon character in the zoot suit? I forget if it was an alligator or a wolf - maybe I was confusing it with Cherry Poppin' Daddies?
But I bought the CD because it said "rare ska" and I'm a sucker. Thankfully this was one of the times it really was a rare ska CD. And I liked it so I went looking to see if they had anything else and they did and I bought that too. Not as good as the other one but still pretty okay.
I meant to put them on Discogs. It's on my to-do list.
