Rabbit Hole: The Novelty Era Singles of The Fat Boys

FatBoys_Group

Before we revel in the imagery of the novelty hits of The Fat Boys, take a listen to this legit piece on the Fat Boys via npr.org and Oliver Wang of the esteemed Soul Sides.

 

Now behold this fine collection of imagery and choices that the trio made upon searching for that wider crossover audience.  They definitely went for it, complete with a cover of the Beatles “Baby, You’re A Rich Man,” from their 1987 comedy vehicle Disorderlies, with the great Ralph Bellamy.
