Subject: Toad The Wet Sprocket

These guys will always be one of my favorite nineties groups. “All I Want “is one of the best songs from 92; which was one of the better 90s music years.  “Good intentions” and “Walk on the Ocean” are also excellent.  I think its cool that they named themselves after a Monty Python skit.

I consider "Good Intentions" to be one of my favorite songs of all time. :)

"All I Want" is so catchy, I remember it too. It has that poppy feel of '80s music with the alternative underbelly of '90s rock (especially in lyrics), without really sounding firmly like either. I have the cassette, so I should listen to the other songs though, 'cause that's the only one by them I know off my head.

Sorry, but "Frog The Moist Gear" is rather low on my list for 80s's bands.

I was working at a record store at the time of the highest popularity, and heard their stuff ad-infiniteum.

Just can't stand to listen to their stuff anymore, to each his own...

erm..."Walk On The Ocean"? I know they had a big hit with that title.

"Good Intentions" (from late '95) was a good song too.

  All I Want is my fave from these guys...

  They sound much like Blue Öyster Cult...

I thought they sounded good, but they had such a stupid band name.

I could never figure out the meaning of the name either...although at one time I found out how they came up with their name. I think it had to do with a Monty Python skit, but I'm not sure.
