No Matter What Shape (Your Stomach's In) is an instrumental composition recorded in 1965 by The T-Bones and released as a single the same year.〔"Top Sellers in Top Markets", ''Billboard'', December 25, 1965. pp. 14-15〕 ==History== In 1965, Dave Pell wanted to record songs based on music from recent TV commercials and release them on 45 RPM singles to see if he could get radio airplay and maybe a hit record. Previously, Liberty Records had used "The T-Bones" as a group name for instrumentals recorded by Los Angeles session musicians The Wrecking Crew, and Liberty told Pell to use it again for his project. In 1965, Pell went into the studio with members of The Wrecking Crew and recorded "No Matter What Shape (Your Stomach's In)," a song based on music used in an Alka-Seltzer TV commercial.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=American Federation of Musicians contract, #536 The T-Bones )〕 When the single became a hit, Liberty Records needed the T-Bones to go on the road to promote it, but the original session musicians weren't willing to go. They were making too much money doing sessions in Los Angeles. So Liberty created a different "public" T-Bones group to appear on record covers, TV, and in concert. The "public" T-Bones were Judd Hamilton, Dan Hamilton, Joe Frank Carollo, Tommy Reynolds, and Gene Pello. None of them played on the hit record.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NO MATTER WHAT SHAPE (YOUR STOMACH'S IN) by THE T-BONES )〕 The single reached #3 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100,〔(Billboard Singles ), Allmusic.com〕 while reaching #1 on Canada's ''RPM'' Play Sheet.〔"(R.P.M.
