I think the phrase literally means "good herb", and apparently refers to different herbs of the mint family, depending on where it's spoken.  Of course, it's possible that this band may use the term in another connotation.



Yerba buena is a kind of herb that's used to prepare mojitos. Tastes like mint, but softer.
Oh! She says the "n..." word! How offensive! It should say "Oye mi afroamericano"
-ironic mode on 
Fun tune, great rhythms, fantastic brass section, and swinging vocals. Not sure why there would be so many low ratings. Easy 7 for sure with good upside.
geez, that was awful 
Ray LaMontagne — Airwaves -?? - it must be the vitamin d... I am now able to remember as much as almost 24 hours ago... I wonder if you can put that little jell stuff in one of those vapor smokers?

The phrase "permanent retinal and psychological scarring" comes to mind, for some reason:

Like the track. 6 and climbing. The cover artwork's pretty weird though.

Yerba Buena 2: Electric Boogaloo

I like the song well enough, but it's impossible to see the phrase "Electric Boogaloo" and not think it's a sequel to something else.
Hmmm, Yerba buena, Que buena!
Interesting...bounces along nicely...a solid 6 so far, not sure whether this will rise of fall with a few more listens.

WAY TO GO BILL!!! Your good work doesn't go unnoticed.
There's a short in there somewhere.

It's gets a point just for the album cover!

Hmmm, I think I like this. Like the bass line.

¡Woohoo! ¡La Yerba Buena!
