FRICTION, BABY ALBUM INFO

Friction, Baby album cover Artist: Better Than Ezra
Album: Friction, Baby
Release Date: 13 Aug 1996


''Friction, Baby'' is Better Than Ezra's second album. It was released on August 13, 1996. After this album was released, they took the year off in 1997 after touring.

The album's title comes from a television interview with Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones. When asked how he and Mick Jagger stayed together for so long, Keith took a long drag from his cigarette and said "friction, baby." This may also be a reference to the fact that the band had replaced its original drummer, Cary Bonnecaze, between the recording of their previous album and this one.

The album produced two hits on the Billboard modern rock charts: "King of New Orleans" and "Desperately Wanting."
"Desperately Wanting" also narrowly missed the Billboard Top 40, peaking at #48. The third and fourth singles, "Long Lost" and "Normal Town," failed to chart.
