You're a Mean One Mr. Grinch

The Grinch story first appeared in 1957. Besides being a poet, writer and cartoonist, Dr. Seuss who created the Grinch, wrote the lyrics to this song. This is our take on it. Merry Christmas, and Happy Holidays.
Written by Albert Hague and Dr. Seuss

Psychotic Pineapple were one of the greatest East Bay bands of all time. I turned Jamie T onto them, and I told Jamie stories about the band, and how my brother Jeff used to go to see them play for .99 cents in 1980. Jamie T and I always talked about doing one of their songs together, and here it is.

Olga is a guitar virtuoso, I'm not fucking kidding. We did a show with Toy Dolls in France, over the past summer- and they're still world-class punk rock. I've been a fan of these guys for almost 30 years, and this is our take on one of their many great tunes.

This song was inspired by the 1962 Vincent Price movie,' The Last Man On Earth'. Originally, I recorded this song in Spain, and a version ended up on the Rancid record, "Let The Dominoes Fall".

This song was written in 1951 by a trio of songwriters that included Tex Atchison. He also wrote quite a few hillbilly boogie, and rockabilly tunes, such as "Tennessee Hound Dog", "Mailman", and Johnny Bond's "Sick, Sober and Sorry". Tex Atchison started recording in the 1930s with the Kentucky Ramblers, who became the Prairie Ramblers. In the post war era, he played with Merle Travis (40's-50's), Ole Rasmussen's Nebraska Cornhuskers, and Leon Chappel in the early 50's. Tex became famous for his Western Swing fiddle playing-- and as a teenager, he would be digging coal by day, and play fiddle, sax and clarinet at night, in coal miner dance halls. Tex Atchison was called "Arguably the best left-handed fiddler in the history of country music" - by country historian Charles K. Wolfe. Being a Southpaw myself, I always have an affinity for a left handed muso.
