The Mighty Mighty Bosstones pulled "Where'd You Go?" from More Noise and Other Disturbances, their second album, released on Taang! Records in 1992, and sent it out as a single. Dicky Barrett wrote it with guitarist Nate Albert and sings lead, and the credits read like a horn-section roll call: Dennis Brockenborough on trombone, Tim "Johnny Vegas" Burton and Kevin Lenear on saxophones. Joe Gittleman plays bass, and Josh Dalsimer is credited with additional drums.
Paul Q. Kolderie engineered it and co-produced with the band, Steve Malone assisting. The album around it became a college radio hit, and one reviewer heard a record that careened from hardcore to hip-hop with the horns as the one steady thread.
