The last great Flipper release before Rick Rubin took them over for American Grafishy, where these two songs reside. For whatever reason I consider the 1987 death of bass player Will Shatter to be the real death of Flipper, but they carried on. Now they have punk rock celebrities sing for them and I hear Shannon Selberg did a good job last week at the Caterwaul festival. This one, however, still has Bruce Loose.
So as for the record at hand, for some reason, there is a live rendition that exclaims Some..Day! that has gone through my head replacing the lyric trailoff here. I prefer that one, but I think it is from a later live show I witnessed, not the Peel Session. The B-side is a standard.
For dead, empty sexless souls that is.
