Oh Hell - I was lazy this time - ripped from a CD @ 320kbps! But it's out of print.
I think I bought this just because I liked the name! Lucky me!

The amazing Philly-based acoustic folk-rock band that featured the gorgeous vocals of Eden Daniels, Chris Unrath on guitar, Dean (Clean) Sabatino of the Dead Milkmen on drums, and the incomparable Andy Bresnan on the Ukranian Burda - a three string bass instrument that looked like a cross between a cello and a Noguchi coffee table. Baby Flamehead released one great album in 1990 on Texas Hotel Records called Life Sandwich and squeezed out one tour before Bresnan's departure (Burda slung over his shoulder) and Dean's Milkmen obligations put the band into several years of low gear. During the Flamehead tour Eden and Chris forged a friendship with Jonathan Segel of Camper Van Beethoven that survives to this day.

Review by Greg Adams
Despite a link with fellow Pennsylvanians the Dead Milkmen (erstwhile Milkman Dean Clean plays drums in both combos), Baby Flamehead was something completely different: an eclectic folk-rock band with a sense of humor that tended toward the obscure. Life Sandwich, their only album, reveals shades of R.E.M. and 10,000 Maniacs, most prominently on "Corpus Christi," but with weird detours like "Supple Turtles Worry About Milk" and the mean-spirited singalong "Amy." "The Circus" is effectively built upon a cheesy drum machine beat, but suffers from the band's not-infrequent difficulty coming up with a chorus. Minor and most definitely a product of its time, Life Sandwich will please those who thought R.E.M.'s Fables of the Reconstruction was much better than the critics said.
ENJOY!
