One of Jimmy Carl Black's memorable lines in the film Frank Zappa's 200 Motels, and it's the title of JCB's second CD in his compilation series.  Recordings from Geronimo Black (with Bunk Gardner and Don Preson), The Band's Robbie Robertson, The Mannish Boys, The Grandmothers, The Farrell & Black Band, The Muffin Men, The X-tra Comb and B.E.P. (with Roy Estrada) are represented along with a JCB interview segment covering his time before and during The Mothers of Invention with Frank Zappa.

A motherlode of old JCB
Originally released in 1996, When Do We Get Paid ? pulls together material from a variety of radio broadcasts, live recordings, rare, hard to find and in some cases previously unreleased nuggets from the discography of the inimicable JCB. Throughout the album's 17 cuts JCB is featured on a variety of recordings from the late 70's to the late 80's in the company of combos including the Grandmothers, Holzhaus, Black And Terrazas, the Jolly Rogers, Big Sonny And The Lo Boys, Arthur Brown and the X-Tra Combo. Most interesting of all though has to be the inclusion of JCB's debut recording with the Keys from 1962 in the shape of their ultra rare Stretch Pants / Just A Matter Of Time 45. Largely repeating the formula of its predecessor, Where's The $%&#@ ' Beer ? finds JCB  trading licks with the Muffin Men, the Farrell & Black band, Geronimo Black ( alongside fellow ex
Mothers Bunk Gardner and Denny Walley ), Robbie Robertson, B.E.P. ( featuring Roy Estrada ) and the Mannish Boys on a selection of tracks recorded at various times between 1972 and 2001 before the album closes with a series of interview segments where JCB recounts his early years and his time with the Mothers.
