Sacred Cow by Geggy Tah

Sacred Cow, the 1996 album from Geggy Tah, came out on Luaka Bop through Warner Bros., and it's as oddball and cheerful as the band's name. Tommy Jordan sings and plays bass, Greg Kurstin handles keyboards and guitar and produced the record himself, and the two of them toss in whatever instruments and ideas come to hand, a magpie approach that had David Byrne marvelling at how many unrelated pieces they fit together.
"Whoever You Are", a breezy, big-hearted singalong, was the one that got through, climbing to number 16 on the modern rock chart, and the band took the album on the road with Sting, Soul Coughing and Barenaked Ladies.
