Banditry is a type of organized crime committed by outlaws typically involving the threat or use of violence.

Frito Bandito
The Frito Bandito was the cartoon mascot for Fritos corn chips from 1967 to 1971. The Bandito was created by the Foote, Cone & Belding Agency and animated by Tex Avery. The character was voiced by Mel Blanc, who used an exaggerated Mexican accent not unlike another character of his, Speedy Gonzales. The Frito Bandito spoke broken English and robbed people of their Fritos corn chips, a reference to the "Mexican bandit" stereotype in Western movies. Pressure from the National Mexican-American Anti-Defamation Committee and others prompted an update to the character; his gold tooth and stubble were eliminated and his hair combed. The character was retired in 1971. He was replaced by the Muncha Bunch, a group of cowboys, and W.C. Fritos, a character modeled after comedian W.C. Fields. History The Frito Bandito character was developed by the advertising firm Foote, Cone & Belding and launched by Frito-Lay in 1967. Actor Mel Blanc provided the character's voice, while the animati ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Production The album contains a cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Third Stone from the Sun". Vince Welnick contributed to ''Calling Up Spirits''. Ron Eglit, Dale's longtime bass player, received a producer credit. Critical reception ''Entertainment Weekly'' wrote that the "mix of covers, remakes of ale's'60s surf hits, and ecologically minded new material feels thin and lacks the cohesiveness of previous efforts."
