Big Ugly Wheels, The Beat Farmers (1990) From their album Loud, Plowed and Live, The Beat Farmers (featuring Country Dick Montana) were a great bar band from San Diego. Dan McLain (aka Country Dick) died onstage of a heart attack in 1995 at the age of 40.

Fruit noises [via]. It’s what my insides sound like at 3AM after eating the good stuff at 6PM.

The Beat Farmers was one helluva fun bar band, and “Blue Chevrolet” was one of my favorite roadtrip songs. I don’t recobanize the lineup except for the Jerry Raney lookalike on vocals and rhythm guitar, and it appears to be a tribute concert at the Belly Up Tavern in 2013. The legendary Country Dick Montana passed away in 1995 while playing drums on “The Girl I Almost Married.”

Never heard Country Dick?
This one’s for you, and so is the next one.
