My favorite Dead Milkmen song is 'Swordfish', but that's because Big Lizard is the only album I have. Which one should I try next?

Top 5 Tracks from Hollywood Hi-Fi, a Golden Throats Comp that should have been better known in all of it's lovely ear-covering wretchedness.

Jayne Mansfield - That Makes It (Take "Chantilly Lace," replace the vocals with Jayne's cooing and oohing, and you have a winner!)

Joe Pesci - Got to Get You Into My Life (One out of millions of bad Beatles covers, this one stands out. Imagine you're in a seriously badly ran lounge, circa 1966-69, and you're almost there.)

Sissy Spacek - John You Went Too Far This Time (Out of all of the hundreds of Bad Beatles Exploitation records, this one is among the ultimate jaw-droppers. It went overboard with the Dramatics over the Two Virgins cover.)

Joe E. Ross - Ooh! Ooh! (Clear the room with this one!)

Ted Cassidy - The Lurch (Imitation Motown-Style Soul with what sounds like a parody of all of the Dance records around, complete with Lurch all over the place. Possibly the lowest impact Dance, ever).
