 It is the third track from their 1995 live album "A Live One" and was released as their ninth promotional single by Elektra Records in 1995.Like "Split Open and Melt," "Gumbo" started out as a strong tune but one that had a destiny that didn’t lie solely in its composition.A mix of acid jazz and loose funk attended with three-part harmonies and silly lyrics, it had all the ingredients for greatness.
