Butthole Surfers/Pcppep

Now Before Gibby invented the Gibbytronix, he would play the saxophone on certain songs, like Something and Bar B Q Pope. The next song Wichita Cathedral is probably my least favorite song on the record, its basically gibby rambling on how he got drunk in Wichita. Now I can tell you now that any Dead Kennedys fan would like the next song suicide, very punk.

The EP then closes with The Revenge of Anus Presley. It is easily my favorite song on the whole album. Whether its fear or humor you are seeking This song will get the job done. It actually starts out with Gibby Speaking in Tongues. Now if one were to Play it backwards we would hear part of "the Shah" when Gibby Yells "There's a time to live and a time to die, I smoke Elvis Presley's toenails, when i wanna get high. This EP goes by several names such as "A Brown Reason to Live", Pee Pee The sailor(thats actually the name or the drwing on the CD) and Butthole Surfers. The last actually being the right one.

Live PCPPEP
In 1984, The Surfers released a live follow up to the self title. It starts with Gibby on the saxophone of Cowboy Bob, a tune to later appear on "SAC". It then continues to a better version of bar b q pope, its better cause Gibby is rambling several things in between Chorus and Verse.

the next song simply puzzles me. Dance of the cobras is simply Paul fooling with his guitar with weird snake noises in the background, a total of 34 seconds. It never appears in later albums and is only found on here, so what is it? It's just that. Nothing.

We then hear a hilarious version of the shah sleeps in lee Harvey's grave. Halfway through the song the speakers give out for a few seconds on one side of the concert. We are then given an idea of the kind of crappy conditions the surfers had to "enjoy". At the end we hear Gibby and the audience telling each other to shut up. Then we hear live versions of Wichita cathedral, Hey and Something, all excellent.

BONUS TRACKS!!!!
As if the 2 EP's were not sweet enough, the Surfers added a 2 song encore, which consists of Gary Floyd-another song to appear on 'Sac' and Matchstick. Before Gary Floyd Starts we are subject to a hilarious plead from Gibby to the audience, to come up with a Butthole Butthole Chant. Then we have the Track Sinister Crayon, which was put on the vinyl version of Humpty Dumpty LSD and contains the saxophone. And the album closes with a Demo Version of Something. The song actually becomes a little tiresome when you hear it for the third time on one CD, but it's great, none the less.

This is a great CD by the surfers and should be in every fan's collection, unless you have only heard Electric Larryland and Weird Revolution, then I would suggest going into some of the other stuff first.
