Members[edit]

I've added the various members to the list. I'm only confident with the ones listed as current members. The rest are based on just based on what I've been able to find on the internet and by reading liner notes from the albums. All of those people were definitely in Cracker but the dates I have them listed might be a bit dubious. I also think I could have left some people out.

bugs salcido played/toured with cracker for a while, i think around 2000 or something. he also worked on kerosene hat. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.16.193.23 (talk) 19:10, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

editing needed[edit]

Could someone do something with this article? I think I may have made things worse, but whoever wrote it originally lumped info from Camper Van Beethoven and Cracker together in here and I'm not sure what should have stayed. -- Zoe

I notice there is no listing here for the "David Lowery and Johnny Hickman Live @ Acme Underground" which was recorded live during the "CMJ Music Marathon." In it seems to have all of Cracker and special performace with Brandy Wood and LP (Laura Pergolizzi). I bought this at Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0048L1L7I?m=A1EERDWRUU4BOE&ref_=v_sp_detail_page) but it is not listed on any place but Amazon and a site called "Ricks Music Archives" at http://www.ricksmusicarchives.com — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.42.197.105 (talk) 14:03, 22 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You basically just stole half of the lyrics and put new music to them, epic fail. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.34.213.70 (talk) 03:25, 10 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Bob's Car[edit]

I am removing Bob's Car from the album listing under Discography. It is not listed on the band's site under their regular album discography. It is listed under Tributes & Special Releases as it was only released to fan club members. If someone wishes to expand the article to include Cracker's tributes and special releases, Bob's car should be included there. --Stangbat 03:04, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

UK chart positions[edit]

from Guinness book of hit singles & albums:

1994 Low (re-entry) #43
1994 Get off this #41
1994 Kerosene Hat #44
