I have (I'm pretty sure) all of their official stuff, and used to work with their lead singer, I've never heard that version. Are you sure your friend didn't mix that in himself?

I doubt it, but it was off a blank cassette. This is something we've been wondering for nearly 20 years as we both own all their cds too.

i am almost 100% sure you can find this version on "Punk Rock Super Heroes"....if you can't find it let me know and i'll upload a copy for you

ok i listened to my copy and.....

i was wrong

its actually a live version on this one

but like you i've heard this version somewhere....and i found out where

so basically BoogadoBoogadoBoogada was originally pressed on Roadkill Records.....then picked up and practically re-recorded by Lookout....the original pressing (red cover) has these samples.....and honestly is not very easy (or cheap) to find.....the second pressing (green cover) put out on lookout is the same album with the samples omitted and re-recording of the vocals.....

the good news

Recess records has gained the rights to the material and re-issued the album (pink cover) and have included the samples

so in short this version is in fact on BoogadaBoogadaBoogada.....but vinyl only original pressing and newest re-issue
