History

[edit]

It features members of his first backing band The Jabbers as well as Wayne Kramer and Dennis Thompson of proto-punk band the MC5 (credited as the MC2) on lead guitar and drums respectively. The recording sessions for the song took place in fall 1980; these sessions also produced a third song entitled "Occupational Hazard", which was not released until the 1990s when it began circulating on bootlegs as "Occupation".[citation needed] The single sold around a couple thousand copies at the time of its release, making it Allin’s best selling effort up until that point.[citation needed]
