Fannie Mae / Just a Little Bit

Rejected by Record Store Day for being too much to handle, here at last are two tracks from the night Bill Davis (Dash Rip Rock) and Fred Le Blanc (Cowboy Mouth) dared Jello Biafra to join them during Jazzfest and sing all classic New Orleans soul, rhythm and blues, and (at Jello's request) garage songs! Joining in were piano Wildman Pete "Wet Dawg" Gordon (Mojo Nixon), Pepper Keenan (Down, Corrosion of Conformity) and a wacky horn section from Egg Yolk Jubilee and Morning 40 Federation that even includes a sousaphone!

Released in advance of the long-rumored, sweat-soaked live album, Walk On Jindal's Splinters (due out on May 12th), these two tracks are not included on the LP. One spin of the 45 and you can hear Jello and friends playing their asses off and have a great time doing it! You want loose? We got loose! You want crazy? That's here, too. At last, here's a whole 'nother side of Jello Biafra: his own deep, pre-punk roots known only to a handful of vinyl junkies and anyone lucky enough to catch his DJ gigs. For all those whose interest in Jello goes beyond the punk persona to Jello Biafra, the singer, this is for you. You've never heard anything like this.
