Information About

The Waitresses




They were best known for their song "I Know What Boys Like", featured on countless new wave Compilation Albums , or the theme song to the cult TV Show '' Square Pegs ''. They are also frequently known for their Christmas Song " Christmas Wrapping ", later Covered by Save Ferris and the Spice Girls .

Chris Butler's diverse musical interests are apparent from the use of prepared Piano on "No Guilt", microtonal background vocals on the chorus of "Wise Up", tape loops and short wave receiver on "Jimmy Tomorrow", and the title of "Make the Weather", taken from Hugo Ball 's autobiography ''Flight out of Time''. Saxophonist and Reed player Mars Williams had also worked as Anthony Braxton 's Copyist .

They released two albums - " Wasn't Tomorrow Wonderful " and " Bruiseology ". Both appear to be long out of print; their music is now available on compilations. '' The Best Of The Waitresses '' ( Polydor 1990 ) is available on CD .
