I was a wee young lad when you guys were rock'n mullets and rock'n rolling. I'm sure I got jiggy with it wearing a full diaper if this jam came on the radio. My mom loved this stuff.
Damn, thanks for making me feel old! I actually saw Sam Kinison perform this live at the Universal Amphitheater in Hollywood, Ca. He opened his comedy show with it.

We were so stoked. Any time we were near a TV, we put that channel on.
Then, one day while ditching school the broadcast was interrupted with this,
The rest is history...
