Houdini

[Eponymous]

Sweet, an extra track!

And how is that track by the way?

It was also on the Hooch single. Great cover.

i just got my copy of Houdini on vinyl which i found on the internet.
apparently this vinyl wasn't released commercially and was not available to the general public...  does anyone know the true history of houdini on vinyl?  is this right and it is super-rare, or was the seller dicking me over?  either way it's pretty cool.

awww.....lllaaammmmeeee.  i thought it was one(or at least 50) of a kind.  i guess nothing in this crazy world is these days.  shucks

I'm sorry to say it, but it's not particularly rare. When it came out my recordshop had loads of it.

Funny thing is that it's not mentioned in the official Amphetamine Reptile discography and the # doesn't fit in with any other AmRep releases.

it's rare enough these days.

well the guy i bought it from said that it was some special promo edition that they found in their bosses desk after the rest of the store had a mutiny against him and he left.  i think the promotional nature of it explains the punched out little notch in the right hand side.  does that make it virtually valueless?  or are promos considered rarer?  i have a promo stag CD as well

That little notch means it was destined for the delete bin

It's been said that Ozma is really about Dale's drumming and that Gluey Porch Treatments shows Buzz''s nasty, raw guitar playing. Houdini then must be about the bass playing as it features some really great and catchy bass lines throughout with the exception of Spread Eagle Beagle, of course. Although when hearing the Melvins uninitiated for the first time Dale's drumming is the first thing that really stands out. Houdini in particular was the first Melvins album I heard and I was floored by the powerful beginning of Hooch, but after becoming accustomed to the professionalism and quality of the Melvins output, you do notice a great many other things to appreciate about their musicianship. Just saying that Houdini is a great album is an understatement.

Jiminy crickets, this is a great album.

Awwwwww!  For someone who "is not that familiar with the album",  I thought his review was great!
What modesty.

that kids sucks.
He calls Dave Grohl superior to Dale.
FREAKING Rock Moranis! Someone take that stupid link down! I hate seeing his face.
