Personally, I would have called it "We Gotta See If We Can Find You a Girl," but that's why I'm a blogger and he's a legend. In any event, that song just does it for me (I always wanted to play it live with a band) and the rest of the album is equally delightful (Amazon informs me the CD is out of print, but you can still download or stream the thing over there, and I highly recommend it).
BTW, I have no idea what Dunlap's been up to lately; last I heard he had some pretty serious medical problems (including a stroke) in the early 'aughts, and after that I come up empty.

That tribute/benefit album that was issued about a decade ago is worth checking out. Features a lot of cool people and stuff. It's called "Songs for Slim" and you won't be disappointed.

The Replacements also did an EP with the same title and purpose.

He must be pretty bad off if he's still trying to scrape up money.
OT but related. since Sir Paul McCartney hasn't issued Denny Laine a blank check yet, the good folks at the Wild Honey Foundation are putting on a show to raise some funds. Check ut the roster.
