($11.03 with *discount)

rock, accordion, novelty, polka: This San Francisco-based band's latest recording, captures the group's quirky worldview and squeezebox-fueled sound, produced by Scott Mathews (John Hiatt, Dick Dale).This time out, TDA offers discerning listeners original rock songs about Japanese sci-fi thrillers: "Mothra" and '60s visionaries: "Them Hippies Was Right" and an original polka featuring a ripping solo accordion by the legendary Dick Contino (as does "Mambo Triste"):"The Hotsy Totsy Polka",and freaks of other sorts: "Hamsterman", and the Loch Ness monster:"Deathbed Confession" and brand-new instrumentals, offering a taste of the band's more-traditional side: "Paco's Dream" and "Ramune." Another TDA! tradition -- accordion "enhancements" of classic rock songs -- continues with a startling rendition of The Who's "Baba O'Riley" and 81-year-old Clyde Forsman's coy version of Rod Stewart's "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy"
