[reply]Hey, obsolete,
the holy grail would be the complete Al appearance on the Phil Donahue show, and not that silly little tease on youtube. You got a copy of that somewhere?

Someone I traded with 20 years ago claimed to have had it, but never produced it. I’d love to see that as well.[/reply]
That’s too bad! Don’t know if I’ve said it yet, But welcome aboard![;)]

Wow, that song’s got legs…
3 things come to mind…
#1 They are paying him royalties and he’s saving the checks up for value meal #3 At McDonalds
#2 they owe Al some royalty $ and Angie hasn’t learned of their owing, otherwise there would already be lawsuit filed.
#3 they may have, at the time, bought the jingle outright from Al and can use it however they like. perhaps they already had the jingle written and just payed Al a performance fee.
Still fun either way!

Thanks grmpysmrf, glad to be here!
BTW- I’m pretty sure that Al would have gotten just a one-time fee for his vocal work, no matter how many times it played. [:P]
Reminds me of that Reno 911 eisode where one of the guys sings “And the installation is free” and thinks he gets $300 every time it airs when it’s really a one-time $300. Most commercial work is done as work for hire. They pay once and that’s it. Different from liscensing pre-existing songs.
THIS post is basically what spurred me into joining! haha i laughed so hard. fucking Al.
Shasta Cola commercial 1983 featuring Al Jourgensen
The original video that was posted is gone. This is a fresh link…and the audio sounds clearer too.
That should’ve been the bonus track on the Industrial Accident soundtrack.
“I wanna taste this ass on a great day”
great lyrics.
Thanks for the update
I totally remember this commercial as a kid. Well, I remember that stupid penguin in the middle of it.
