Release


Gung Ho was released on March 21, 2000, by Arista Records. The title refers to a Chinese phrase meaning "work together" adopted by the US Marines during World War II as a morale-building slogan. It is the first Patti Smith album to not include her on the cover (it shows, instead, a picture of her father, Grant Smith).
The song "New Party" was used as the official song for the 2000 Ralph Nader's presidential campaign.
Smith wrote the song "Grateful" in tribute to Jerry Garcia on August 9, 1995, the day of his death.
As of February 2004, Gung Ho had sold 49,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen Soundscan.
