Party Hard, Little Isidore & The Inquisitors (date unknown) Can’t find a date for this gem, could be 1993 or 2012, but I love it. Little Isidore is/was the alter ego of David Forman, a little known musician with a great resume; he fronts The Inquisitors, aka The Golden Inquisitors, aka The Mighty Inquisitors. Forman is 10 years younger than Little Isidore.
Sound up for pure awesome.
