If you’ve seen “Bathtubs Over Broadway,” you may remember punk rock legend and weird music aficionado Don Bolles holding up a copy of this ultra rarity and crooning the first line of the title track. Finally a copy has been added to the Steve Young industrial musicals archive, and to celebrate, here’s the whole song. Most of the record is pop and Broadway covers, but the uncredited theme song is pretty decent.
