"Good Guys and Bad Guys" comes from Camper Van Beethoven's self-titled 1987 album, a record the band produced themselves with Tom Fox engineering. The credits read like a well-stocked junk shop: David Lowery and Chris Molla on guitar, Lowery adding steel guitar and Molla pedal steel, Jonathan Segel switching between guitar and bass, Victor Krummenacher on bass and Chris Pedersen on drums.
Lowery, Molla and Krummenacher all take a turn at the microphone, and with two steel players in the room the song leans toward country without ever quite settling there, loose and a little crooked.
