Joe 90
In September 1999, the band had released their debut CD under the new moniker. The album, entitled Dream This, was released through E Pluribus Unum/Universal label — a venture started by Counting Crows lead singer Adam Duritz. The label was bought out by Interscope in 2000. Joe 90 embarked on a cross-country tour in support of the album, from October ’99 through February 2000. They toured alongside the Counting Crows.
Their first single, "Drive", (featuring Duritz on counter lead vocals) garnered major radio airplay across the country and was featured in the second season of Six Feet Under. Song "Cars Go By" was the end title for New Line Cinema 1999 film Body Shots. Every song from Dream This performed in film or on television. Laura Nyro's "And When I Die" was performed by Joe 90 as the end title of New Line Cinema distributed film Final Destination in 2000 and appeared on the album A Raccoons Lunch. Their final record remains unreleased.

Famous quotes containing the word joe:
“This might be the end of the world. If Joe lost we were back in slavery and beyond help. It would all be true, the accusations that we were lower types of human beings. Only a little higher than apes. True that we were stupid and ugly and lazy and dirty and, unlucky and worst of all, that God Himself hated us and ordained us to be hewers of wood and drawers of water, forever and ever, world without end.”
—Maya Angelou (b. 1928)
