"Italian Leather Sofa" is a John McCrea song through and through, words and music, and it sits on Fashion Nugget, the second Cake album, released in 1996. The band produced and arranged it themselves, with Joe Johnston, Craig Long and Kirt Shearer engineering and Scott Reams assisting, and the album was made at Paradise Studios in Sacramento, California.
Fashion Nugget is a 14-song grab bag that folds funk, hip-hop, rockabilly, jazz, country and Latin music into Cake's alternative rock, all of it delivered with a straight face. "The Distance" and "I Will Survive" were its biggest singles, and the album went gold in December 1996 and platinum the following year.
