It's all good in da hood!
A couple no one has mentioned yet:
"Psychedelic (That's Where It's At)" by The Monocles (also I think this is the same group that did that bizarro "Spider & The Fly" song, only under a different name -- and that one's boss too.)
"Nowhere Chick" by The Endless Pulse (which is on a comp called "Only In America" which has all sorts of great stuff -- like aforementioned "Spider & The Fly" and also a tune called "The Vacuum" which features a "vacuum cleaner solo"!)
And finally there are these boot-comps called "Wavy Gravy" (vol. 1 & 2) that are way excellent and highly recommended. Not a lot on there you've probably heard of, funky old soul tunes and psych and weird country ballads about LSD and serial killers . . . a couple from these that flash my mind include:
"Psycho" by Eddie Noack -- krazy kountry! You'll cry in your beer as he describes killing his dog with a hammer!
"Batman Rides Again" by the Incredible Burgundy Bullfrog (admit it, you are dying to hear it!)
Also lots of great movie radio ads between the tracks (The Astro Zombies, Graveyard Tramps, Frogs, etc.) . . .
