Ne'er Do Wells and Judy & The Loadies - Gift Of Knowledge

The Ne'er Do Wells were an American Rock and Roll band formed in Arcata, California by Chris Imlay, late of Brent's T.V. and John Denery, brother of Dallas Denery from Sweet Baby. Jesse Hilliard played bass and Al Sobrante formerly of Green Day played drums.
They released one EP on Lookout! Records entitled Hello It Is I, Thee Intolerable Bastard Child Genius and a split CD with Judy and the Loadies called The Gift of Knowledge. There was also a side project called Thee Shatners, a Star Trek-themed surf band, released on Planet Pimp Records.
After Al Sobrante left abruptly in 1994, the band evolved into the Hi-Fives. Judy and The Loadies was a band that wasn't around too long, but boy was it cool! It could easily be considered a side project of The Ne'er Do Wells, becuase it basically was The Ne'er Do Wells minus Al. The line up had Chris on drums, Jess on bass, John on guitar and vocals, and Judy singing! They had many great songs, my favourite being "I Wanna Leave My Brain To Science" or is it "Soap Soap Soap"? Anyhow, you can hear their recordings on Gift of Knowlegde, a split CD with The Ne'er Do Wells.
