Strictly for indie stores only. Limited purple coloured vinyl. First time reissued, includes the original cover artwork. Out of print in any format for 30 years. Most of us likely missed MUDHONEY’ s ‘Five Dollar Bob’ s Mock Cooter Stew’ when it first cratered here on Earth in late 1993, but we can ALL learn from our previous mistakes RIGHT NOW Out of print in any physical format for 30 years , here is their Reprise miniLP for all to devour in realtime and roll in its naked glory. Initially recorded by the band as an offering for their fans to devour while they were between fulllength albums, the majority of ‘Five Dollar’ was recorded in one short, inspired burst on August 1, 1993, between the hours of 930 and 1015 PM with friend and Fastback Kurdt Bloch egging them on from the production booth. They smashed this out in just 45 minutes. It might be the band at their most ‘Stoogeesque’ since there is no flowery imagery nothing to misinterpret just inyourface blunt despair in that department, Black Flag’ s ‘Damaged’ LP comes to mind, especially in Mudhoney’ s gleefully punishing highlight ‘No Song III’. Within two seconds of any of these songs hitting your mind maybe even within one second, you knew it could only be Mudhoney. You can instantly recognize it, because they truly own ityouthe universe.
