[] Also in this genre (I guess) is the group the Flying Lizards, whose hysterically funny cover of the Beatles' "Money" was played frequently on WBCN-Boston a few years ago (when BCN was a lot more freaky). That's actually the only song I know the group by, but in my head it earned the group the right to exist! Ellen Brenner ...decvax!decwrl!rhea!aruba!brenner

WAIT A MINUTE LET'S NOT GET CARRIED AWAY HERE WHO SAID THAT "MONEY" BELONGED TO THE BEATLES . . . Actually the original version of "Money" was done by Barrett Strong. It was the first hit on Motown records and was (co? -)authored by Berry Gordy, Jr. By the way -- did everyone know by now that Rockwell (of current hit single "Somebody's Watching My Body" or something like that) is Berry Gordy's son? ----- "You can take the boy out of Detroit but you can't take the Detroit out of the boy."
