This compilation was released after the band left SST to go to London Records. The band had no input on it whatesoever, and it shows. From the slapdash cover, rife with misspellings and incorrect information, to the crackbrained song selection, this head-scratcher stands out like the misfit that it is. Nonetheless, it's the only double-length Meat Puppets CD, which makes it a bargain as well as a good starting-point for the uninitiated. Snap it up quick, for it's bound to be deleted in favor of a real greatest-hits package one day.
