Meat Puppets are a great example of highly skilled musicians with actual songwriting ability, not just boring technical prowness.

This song and The Meat Puppets in general never cease to amaze me. I've been listening to these guys since the '80s.Maybe 1986 they came through town, and our band got booked to open for them. We were thrilled as we were fans. During soundcheck, we told them we did one of their songs on a regular basis. They were so flattered, they asked us to play it for our opening set. And as their last encore songs, they did that song and has us jam with them. What was a 3-minute song, turned into a 10-12 minute jam for a room full of Puppets fans. Was cool when Curt relocated to Austin here, and rounded up friends of mine to be in his band. I told Cris that in this video, by the shading, he looked like he and Elijah Wood could be brothers. At the time, he didn't know who that was. This song landed on a soundtrack for a movie called "Chasers." Fun movie, killer soundtrack. I later became friends with one of the actors in the movie. Had the chance to tell Curt that this person was in the movie, loved the soundtrack, and "Sam" was still a long-standing favorite song. Curt just kind of joked that this person couldn't have been that big of a fan. This person had never seen them live, and if they did...they never went up to talk to them after the show. I told him he had a point.

Nice. I used to live in Austin and grab Home Slice 🍕 with my son pretty regularly. Although I've met all the Meat Puppets except the Whole Foods drummer, I still think it's cool a literal guitar 🎸 God lives there in A town now.

Good on Nirvana for getting the Pups some more exposure a couple of years later.. still a favorite band!

I remember an MTV interview with Cobain. They extolled his talents and when asked a dumb question he just said, “No one will ever again write like the Kirkwoods. Then later heard this which may be made up. This guy said that he worked at Capital Records in LA. He said that the Kirkwood brothers were there one day to use the in house Telecaster for Sam. He said that was because this guitar was a ‘65 “whistler” and quite rare. For some reason which no one would dare mess with the guitar has a very high pitched whistling sound that certain players could coax out of it. Who knows?
