Notes: Even
if you bought the album only for the covers of songs by Blue Oyster
Cult, The Urinals, The Meat Puppets and Credence Clearwater Revival
it would be a bargain. Throw in a large spoonful of originals clocking
in at around a minute or so and you've got a caffeine driven room
full of cigar smoke, political intrigue and downright leftist leanings.
Power to the common folk. With songs like "Ack Ack Ack" the
Minutemen set the tone for some of the best of the 80's punk. The
cover painting by D. Boon (deceased) is a great likeness with a
tinge of satire. Back cover photo's are of a few chums having a
laugh. I you don't own any Minutemen this is a very good starting
point.
