Looks like I'm going through (my) #PerfectAlbums today. They're all subjective.
This one might not be some people's tastes. But to me, it's perfect.

I'm a Meat Puppets fanatic, seen em multiple times, love stuff from all the albums. But only a few of their records I find perfect. I'm not big on their super early stuff. Bits and pieces.
I dig 'Monsters' from 1989 fully, but it's not an 'anytime' kind of record for me. So the first Meat Puppets record I find perfect - an 'anytime' album - is 1991's 'Forbidden Places'.
Has some real alt-country on this one (as most Puppets records do, it's not much, among the blazing guitars). From the first seconds and minutes of "Sam" - I mean, they still play this live. It is WILD. They Might Be Giants covered "Whirlpool". This album is rad, man. From "No Longer Gone" (which was my username on Twitter for many years) 🤣 to the title track, just legendary. Underrated?

This week's #TuneTuesday is #StorySong (a song that tells a story).
I was just thinking the other day how Meat Puppets are EXCELLENT at this. Curt Kirkwood is one of our greatest living songwriters.
The whole 'Rat Farm' record from 2013 is great and deserves a listen. But "Sweet", the last track on it, wow. The lyrics are epic.

A pretty great moment in my life, in 2018, I saw the Meat Puppets for the third time and dragged my wife (she HATED them 😂). But we were right next to the stage, and she is SO DAMN COOL that she got this AWESOME footage of them playing one of my favorites of their songs, 'Severed Goddess Hand' - solo and all. Wow. Curt Kirkwood is a guitar GOD.
