One of the best live bands EVER! Curt Kirkwood is a guitar god. He used to say that his brother Chris (bass) was a better guitarist than he. Unfortunately, their studio albums were generally sleepy in comparison with their live performances, and they never quite busted out.
Nirvana Unplugged has their 'Lake of Fire' on it.
I was always amazed that they played everything live twice as fast as on the albums, and Curt would sing an octave higher, and wank far more on the guitar. They were an amazing band.
One of the best tours, circa 1986:
Meat Puppets
The Minutemen
Husker Du
No Joke!
