Includes liner notes by Danny Elfman.Oingo Boingo includes: Danny Elfman (vocals).Recorded on Halloween, 1995, this two-disc live set is, as advertised, the last hurrah for Danny Elfman's new-wave-with-horns parody-rock band. However, the group had truthfully become inactive at least half a decade earlier, as Elfman's status as one of the most in-demand soundtrack composers in Hollywood took up most of his time.Covering the whole of their recording career, from 1980's self-titled EP to 1990's DARK AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL, Elfman and longtime cohorts Steve Bartek and Johnny "Vatos" Hernandez, leading an expanded 12-person lineup, hit all the highlights, from "Wild Sex in the Working Class" to "Little Girls." An oddly effective medley of the Beatles' "Piggies" and "I Am the Walrus" is an unexpected highlight.Product Identifiers
