True to the odd nature of the name of this album and the corresponding cover art, “TBC’n with Rahashee” is an album with a strange feel for me (for Frozen Taco albums too). I see this album as a strange mix of tunes: Temple, Playground, Calm After the Storm, to Igor is a good brew of classic Frozen Taco. This was a good time in the Frozen Taco era as we were featured in the 
newspaper and also were featured on the first show of “Rebel Rock” (one of our favorite funny stories). Back on a serious note, this album has some of Frozen Taco’s best songs. I can still remember the distinct good feelings on finishing “Calm After the Storm” and the excitement of the live recording of “Tangible Haven”. This was a fun album to record. Our joke song, “52 Live Kids…” is one of our best too. This album also features Brian Helium, of Elf Power fame, on the bass for a few tracks. Watch the sparks fly, then combustion…

1990 was a good year for FT. We completed “TBC’n With Rahashee,” and the local newspaper wrote a story about us (the photo from which still adorns my wall). Two hilarious events also occurred that year. The newspaper article put us in touch with Mike Richardson, who was making a music video show called, “Rebel Rock.” We ended up making a less than stellar video of “Call of the Wild” and having our song introduced by drunken members of “Driving & Crying.” At least we were better than “The Vague Monkey Bars,” whose “Golden Lady” video still brings tears of laughter to my eyes (“Dark glasses, slow hair; one look from her, beware”). The second hilarious event concerned our attempt to record Tangible Haven at a professional recording studio called Reel Time. The comedy of errors that ensued is unmatched in FT history. The misadventures are too numerous to recount here, but needless to say, we did not record Tangible Haven at Reel Time. The microphone propped up on a stack of books, and the quote, “I’ve never done a band before,” should have been hints at their incompetence. “TBC’n With Rahashee” really demonstrates FT’s growth, musically. Theron came into his own on the electric guitar in a big way, as “Calm After the Storm”, “Call of the Wild” and “Igor” will attest. And I began to treat the lyrics with more care. Some of the lyrics of the past make me wince today (see “Mind Games”), but not so with “Rahashee.” I was finding my voice with this album. My favorite lyrics are in “Playground”.
