This album was my favorite about 12 years ago. I hadn't heard this song in about 11 years either. Always searched youtube and Itunes for them. Thanks for posting. This is very much the pinnacle of rare. Thanks.
Damn, I finally figured it out!!! I don't listen to much ska, but I remembered listening to a comp in the mid to early 90's.... and this was the song I remembered and there's the comp cover!! Yay!! Thanks Insteps!
well maybe the original had a the checkered part that the guy is tearing through? I'm not sure exactly, I had it copied onto a tape.. but either way, this is definitely from the comp!
We recorded a couple singles, then after I left they recorded an LP, and broke up. I worked in a Hong Kong band, Transnoodle, that does a fair bit of sorta-ska and is still together,

I remember this song from when I was at Columbia U uptown going out to see them at phi ep ! Anyone from back then ??
I remember listening to this all the time when I was a little kid, so glad I finally rediscovered it after all these years!
Thanks for posting with CORRECT INFO. Me and Tom Hughes wrote this with Dave Nelson and Noah Roy while in The Insteps.
Josh, I was at Columbia when you guys were playing at Sigma Nu on 114th. Do you have the album still? Can you share it?
Tom Hughes was my roommate at Hunter College. Do you know where he is these days?
Oh damn. Did we mess that up back at Beloved Recordings?
Wow that answers a question I've had bouncing around my head for like 20yrs hahaha
I love this song we’re covering this in my band
In my early to mid teens "Shotgun Jimmy" was often my screen name for games and aim accounts.
Can't find this track anywhere else...Loved it on the third wave compilation.
Another ska song lost to the ages. Great memories.
They should remaster for Spotify ❤

love this song! reminds me of my husband!
Original cover AFAIK, this is the only cover I've seen and what we got when this comp first came out.
Wow, that's awesome.
Whatever happened to The Insteps? Just curious. I've loved this song ever since this girl put it on a cd for me..
This is the Jam
Decamp - You out there? JB from Fordham. I was doing a search cuz I wanted to hear some of the songs from your album. Mr. Chatterbox!
Yep now I see it I know what you mean; it's familiar. I could be wrong, but that could be front & back covers.
