Limited 25th Anniversary Edition on Red/Yellow Vinyl
This is it, daddy-o, the 1998 album that sparked the whole late-‘90s swing revival! And it’s all decked out in vinyl threads for the first time on its 25th anniversary... clear with red and yellow swirl vinyl, to be exact! Big Bad Voodoo Daddy’s first big break came when three of their songs were featured in the hit 1996 indie film Swingers (and the band made a live cameo playing their song “You & Me & the Bottle Makes 3 Tonight (Baby)”). A major label signing to Interscope (followed by an eventual appearance at the halftime of the Super Bowl) came soon after, and Big Bad Voodoo Daddy (also known as Americana Deluxe, and went Top 50) was their debut for the imprint. Songs like “Go Daddy-O” and “Mr. Pinstripe Suit” will make you want to gas up the Packard to go thrift store shopping for zoot suits, while slow- burners like “Please Baby” make contemplating the olive in your cocktail an essential existential exercise. One word of warning, though: wear some comfortable shoes when playing this record, because you’ll be lindy-hopping and mambo-ing till the wee hours. This 2-LP set is all dressed up for a big night out in a dazzling gatefold jacket...a must!
