"Jaimme's Got a Gal" was the third single from Sound as Ever, the debut album You Am I released through rooArt Records in October 1993, trailing "Adam's Ribs" and "Berlin Chair". Tim Rogers, the band's singer and guitarist, wrote the words and shares the music credit with bassist Andy Kent and drummer Mark Tunaley.

They made the whole album in eight days across July and August 1993 at Pachyderm Studio, a rural spot in Cannon Falls, Minnesota, with Sonic Youth's Lee Ranaldo producing and Wayne Connolly recording and mixing alongside him. Rogers recalled that Nirvana had just finished In Utero there when they walked in. It's back-to-basics rock with a punk streak, and Tunaley didn't stick around to see it land: he was pushed out before the album appeared, and Rusty Hopkinson took over the drums.
