Here's a video review from Stereogum back in 2007: "Set in a Chinese restaurant, the foot stomping, kung-fu fighting video for all-gal bluegrass quartet Uncle Earl’s John Paul Jones-produced 'Streak O’ Lean, Streak O’ Fat' is one of the more jarring cultural blends we’ve encountered recently. In a totally good, weird, Zeppelin-related way. The band doesn’t fight — that’s left for various hollaback girls (and boys). They stand amidst it all with shit-eating grins, shouting Chinese over old-timey fiddles and loopy Raymond Scott sound effects, until it’s time to school the karate choppers with Western dancing. We’re not making this up…"
