The other night I was scanning the hundreds of movies available to me from my cable service. After a lengthy search I decided to revisit the Greatest Beer Run Ever. For those of you who haven't seen this movie yet, it's time to check it out.

Again my great friend Peter Farrelly chose another one of our songs to be placed in the Apple TV release, "The Greatest Beer Run Ever". We are honored, blessed and humbled that Peter would once again choose a Nakeds' song for this movie. "That's Alright" from our first Album, "Coming To Theatre Near You", is featured in "The Greatest Beer Run Ever" The film released on September 30, 2022 on Apple TV. The Movie features, Zac Efron, Russell Crowe and Bill Murray. Beer Run is directed by academy award winner and my friend Peter Farrely. We can't thank Peter enough for giving us this great honor and adding to the bands legacy! Check out the movie on Apple TV. It's just as fantastic as the first time I watched it!

I’m Huge Video 1983!

I’m Huge Video 1983!

How "I'm Huge" came to be. By the early 1980s, Naked Truth had become the most popular band on Cape Cod. Their schedule included appearances at the biggest club on the Cape, The Casino By The Sea in Falmouth, Massachusetts, which encompassed every extra-celebratory point of the summer season from Memorial Day weekend to the Fourth of July to Labor Day weekend. But in Falmouth, there was an “extra” special weekend between the 4th and the end of summer: Road Race weekend in August. From 1972 to the present, Falmouth has played host to an annual seven mile race which ends at the Casino and by this time, there were over 10,000 runners competing. The band had become friendly with two of the bartenders at the Casino, Michael Hennessey and Billy Threadgold. (Bill was a college athlete who participated in the Road Race and worked his way through school tending bar in the summers.) In the summer of 1981, Mike and Billy bought a tiny motor boat to use as a fishing skiff in the mornings which, in tribute to the massive yachts, sailboats and cabin cruisers which docked or moored on the beach side of the Casino all summer, they christened “The Huge.” The little dinghy, which more often than not had to be bailed out in the morning before fishing could commence, became the talk of the town and “huge” became the buzzword of the summer: 
How’re you doin’ today? I’m huge! 
How was the band last night? They were huge! 
How was that sandwich? It was huge! 
Late one night during Fourth of July weekend ’81, the band was hanging out after their show with Billy and Mike sipping on GIQ’s of ‘Gansett. (The “Giant Imperial Quart” was a 42 ounce beer produced by the Narragansett Brewing Company of Cranston, Rhode Island, favored by the band which was dutifully and ritually stockpiled by the Nakeds before each road trip to ensure there would be some refreshments for the post-gig wind-down period after their shows.) One thing led to another and when someone asked, “How you doin’,” and got the expected answer, “I’m huge,” someone tossed out, “…and the babes go wild!” Next thing you know, Mike and Billy and trumpet player, Steve “The Kid” DeCurtis began running with the idea and the lines began to flow. Kevin Cason, the band’s bass player and chief arranger said, “I’d better write this down!” Before the sun came up, the song had been born. Before long, the band had worked up an arrangement of the tune and they debuted it at The Casino at their next appearance on Road Race weekend to a massive audience response. At that time MTV had been born and offered a format for unsigned bands to send independent videos for airplay on MTV. The show was called Basement Tapes. So in 1981 I had the idea of filming an 
independent video of I'm Huge (and the babes go wild)! It was submitted to MTV's Basement Tapes and the Nakeds made the rotation. I recently dug up the beta master tape of that video and had it digitally formatted. Our 1983 I'm Huge (and the babes go wild) is now available to view on YouTube! https://youtu.be/t0GdD-hgiSU

As promised Our I'm Huge 1983 video is now available to view on YouTube! Check it out!
