Meat Puppets

Before the live recording on November 30, 1992, at KCRW-FM, the Meat Puppets had just released their influential album "Too High to Die" earlier that year. This album marked a significant moment in their career, showcasing their evolution toward a more polished sound while still holding onto the eclectic spirit that defined their earlier work. During this period, they gained widespread recognition, particularly after their appearance on Nirvana's "MTV Unplugged". This live session not only captured the band's dynamic energy but also highlighted their storytelling abilities and unique blend of punk, country, and psychedelia. It's fascinating to see how their raw performances echoed the themes of introspection and humor found in their songs. The recording is a delightful glimpse into a pivotal time when the Meat Puppets were carving out their place in the alternative rock landscape.
