Around the time that nu-metal and garage rock/post wave revivalists dominated alt-rock radio, these gems occasionally show up on the dial.
The K.G.B. - "Lover Undercover" (2001)
This SoCal group has a nice little laid back song with some ska horns and a bit of Smokey Robinson into it.
Caviar - "Tangerine Speedo" (2000)
This band from Chicago has a great song that was featured in the "Charlie's Angels" movie. It starts off with a bit of exotica in the verse with a rocking chorus. Anyway, is Mello Yello great when it's mixed with gin?
The Incredible Moses Leroy - "Fuzzy" (2001)
San Diego's Ron Fountainberry had a act that was named in honor of his grandfather and his album, Electric Pocket Radio, is a great one to listen to. Later, IML evolved into the Soft Lightes and had Cibo Matto's Miho Hatori contribute her vocals to one of the tracks.
Toothpick - "Time Travelin' Couch" (2001)
Doug Ray left Bad Ronald to form a solo act. He did great songs like this and "Super Size Me" (the latter for the Morgan Spurlock documentary).
