Toad the Wet Sprocket- Hold Her Down 5-94

Now more than ever I wonder whether Toad the Wet Sprocket, the  Santa Barbara CA band with the strong songs of singer/guitarist Glen Phillips, could have been twice as popular if they had taken a name other than an obscure Monty Python comedy bit. As it stands, they still managed to sell over a million copies of their third album in 1991, Fear , containing the gut-wrenching anti-date rape song “Hold Her Down”, performed here absolutely live with me In the Studio in May 1994. And Toad the Wet Sprocket have reformed and are still a great live band today. See them this year on the “Good Intentions 25” tour. – Redbeard
