Another blown commercial opportunity...

Today I was listening to Y107, a commercial-alternative station out here in
Southern California. Sort of on his own, the DJ played a novelty cover of
the Beastie Boys' "Fight for Your Right" by an unsigned Texas group called
the Recliners. (PRESUMABLY, not the group who backed up KD Lang...?) Sort
of along the lines of Aztec Camera's "Jump," it was a campy, shuffling,
lounge version that sounded INCREDIBLY like early Jazz Butcher stuff, both
vocally and musically. <sigh> Jeez, the JBC couldn't done the same thing 10
years ago!
Anyone else heard this song?
