The core pairing assembled a full 8-piece live band for touring purposes, and released one The Herbaliser Band album. Although still a studio rather than a live album, it is distinct from the normal Herbaliser albums; the lack of guest vocalists focuses the an overall "live band" feel, especially showcasing the horn section.

(speaker does band introductions)
The lyrics to The Herbaliser's song "Ginger Jumps The Fence" are a humorous and lighthearted tribute to people with red hair. Redheads, or gingers as they are often called, are often stereotyped as having a fiery and unpredictable nature. The opening lines of the song acknowledge this stereotype, as the singer addresses the audience with a message specifically for gingers.
The next line, "I'd advise you not to go out in the sun," is a reference to the fact that people with red hair are often more sensitive to sunlight and can easily burn. It's also a nod towards the fact that people with red hair often feel like outsiders or misfits in society, and may have to take extra precautions to protect themselves.
The song then goes on to showcase The Herbaliser's signature blend of jazz, funk, and hip-hop, with a catchy beat and a playful melody that perfectly captures the high-spirited energy of the lyrics. Overall, "Ginger Jumps The Fence" is a fun and upbeat track that celebrates the unique qualities of redheads and encourages them to embrace their individuality.
