Wedding Vows In Vegas

Here's a clip from the Letterman Show from, perhaps 1993? I remember seeing it at the time. The song is Wedding Vows In Vegas by Was/not Was and the guest vocalist is Frank Sinatra Junior. it was a cut off of their record, What Up Dog?

Was/not Was is/was one of the great conceptual bands of or time. Los Bros Was, Don and Dave were very influential in the developement of techno in Detroit and still are influential producers and musicians working today. Last year, Was/not Was reunited to release the record BOO on Rykodisc. They have been playing and are still doing dates.
I am trying to psychically influence them to do another European Tour....

Part of what made them so conceptually great was their ability to persuade unlikely artists to collaborate with them. The 1982 record, Born To Laugh At Tornados had among others, Doug Fief....you know, the My Sharona guy? Mitch Ryder, Ozzie Osbourne and probably the last recording of Mel Torme... on the epic ballad, Zaz Turned Blue.

The bassist, Don Was produced some of the greatest hits of 90's...Bonnie Rait's Luck Of The Draw, Records by Bob Dylan, Paula Abdul, the breakthrough Rai classic, N'issi N'issi by Cheb Khaled, Dave was responsioble for the comeback records of Ricki Lee Jones....I believe somewhere on thebrainpolice I posted a song by Was/not was that was written by Dylan and Los Bros Was for Paula Abdul.....

Don released a solo project in the late 90's...a short movie that was a collaboration with Francis Ford Coppola called Forever's A Long Long Time, the mucical collaborators were Herbie Hancock, Wayne Kramer, Merle Haggard and Kris Kristofferson. The piece, Excuse Me Colonel, Can I Borrow Your Newspaper, a techno/jazz/rock dance riff is worth the price of admission alone, when Wayne Kramer rips his guitar solo, your speakers will explode!
Worth checking out.

Impeccable musicianship, unclassifiable conceptual humor and real soul...
These guys are a legend......
