Far from being a self-conscious back-to-basics move, 'La Cucaracha' feels more like Ween just laying back and cutting loose, and it's hard not to get caught up in their party here--especially when David Sanborn graces the album's closing 'Your Party' with his signature smooth-jazz sax."

Dude made two Mellow Gold references...first he sang "Reminscing" by Little River Band and added "I'm gonna keep singing this until we raise 20 billion dollars so you can get back to the other acts like Kelly Clarkson and....I dunno, Pure Prarie League or whomever."

They seemed to show a lot of good stuff before they went belly-up. "Mellow Gold killed the saxophone in pop music. Well, that and ’80s TV themes (which this sounds like)." Agreed, Mike, at least when it comes to '80s TV themes, and what about songs from '80s TV-show soundtracks, like Glenn Frey's "You Belong to the City"? The best was when the video would cut to the saxophonist standing on a bridge or a balcony, wailing away.
