Agree with you both 100%. Also think Meat Puppets II is good. Saw them with Camper Van Beethoven in 1985 or 1986 at a small venue in Fresno, CA and they were indeed hot. But so were Camper Van Beethoven. A great gig.
Any Meat Puppets Fans Out There?
I fairly recently discovered these guys and they get alot of play on my system and in my car. IMHO their best albums were "Up On The Sun" and "Mirage" released in the mid-80's. Now they've just released an album called "Volcano". At $9.99 from Long Beach Records you can't beat it and its great! Curt Kirkwood is terrific with a guitar. Any one else heard it?
