Lambchop up with people


Nixon is the fifth studio album by American rock band Lambchop. The album was released on February 8, 2000 and became a critical and commercial breakthrough for the band, especially in the United Kingdom, where it polled highly in several year-end polls in music magazines, among them Uncut magazine. The song "Up with People" was subsequently remixed by Zero 7.
