Primus - Sailing The Seas Of Cheese Vinyl

Available here is Primus' classic album "Sailing The Seas Of Cheese" reissued on vinyl. In a restoration personally overseen by Les Claypool, "Sailing The Seas Of Cheese" has been newly mixed in stereo for the first time since its 1991 debut for this deluxe edition released by Universal Music Enterprises.

Opening with the creaky sounds of a ship at sea, 1991's "Sailing The Seas Of Cheese," Primus' second full-length album, charts the funk-punk waters the San Francisco Bay area band returns to again and again. It's all here: the acerbic humor, Les Claypool's gurgling fretless bass lines, Larry LaLonde's seasick metal guitar, and Tim Alexander's Bill Bruford-inspired syncopation. Tom Waits makes a cameo on the funky back-alley tale "Tommy the Cat," and the protagonist of "Jerry Was a Race Car Driver" has "too many cold beers one night" and "wraps himself around a telephone pole." Primus concert fave "Those Damned Blue Collar Tweakers" helps round out this bizarre prog-punk masterpiece.
