Between all the related side projects, D. Clinton and cohorts have released literally dozens of great discs beginning in 1977. In addition tho their own music as The Skeletons, you might want to check out their work backing Rudy Grayzell, Syd Straw, Clarence Brewer, Robbie Fulks and others. Of late, D. Clinton' bassist Lou Whitney teamed up with The Bottle Rockets for the tribute album 'Songs Of Sam'. But the coolest thing is that in 2000, Springfields's Downtown High School commissioned a mural of the areas music stars for one of their walls, and there in the right corner, big as life, are The Skeletons.
