The Von Dutch name is actually associated with classic automobile pinstripe jobs. But apparently no one wants to mention the racist/personal life of the artist at the same time.

Another example of a record created by non-musicians. It is easy to envision businessmen in suits sitting in an office saying: "Let's cash in on the latest crazes by tossing together a song with beatnik poetry, little men from outer space, and car culture.". Ladies and gentlemen, this record is the result.

Jerry's non car stuff is rather pedestrian(pardon the pun) too:
