G Love and the Special Sauce - Self Titled

G. Love and Special Sauce is the debut album by the American band G. Love & Special Sauce, released in 1994. The album was certified Gold after selling 500,000 copies. It contains the song "Cold Beverage", which became a college-radio staple, as well as "Baby's Got Sauce", which Seattle's KEXP-FM 90.3 called the song of the year.

The Philadelphia Inquirer wrote that G. Love's "carefree playing refracts the blues into a slew of unlikely colors, and his rapping, a style he calls 'ragmop', is one of the most significant updates of blues phrasing since British rockers took a shine to the sound in the mid-'60s." The Globe and Mail concluded that "it's nothing profound and it will no doubt get up the nose of both blues and rap purists, but it's good dumb fun nonetheless.”
