Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge is their least accomplished album, mainly because of the poor mixes and incredibly low fidelity. For me, 'Into The Drink' is the only truly memorable number off that album. It was somewhat disappointing, coming after Superfuzz Bigmuff, s/t and the Superfuzz Bigmuff/Early Singles compilation.
My Top Three Mud Albums: 1)Mudhoney, 2)Five Dollar Bob's Mock Cooter Stew and 3)Since We've become Translucent
The stand-out numbers: 'Touch Me I'm Sick', 'Get Into Yours', 'Make It Now' (either version), 'Blinding Sun', 'No Song III', 'What Moves The Heart' (probably the only number I've ever heard that owes its dynamics to Cream's version of Willie Dixon' 'Spoonful'), and 'Sonic Infusion' (love that synthetic little ending that burps and gargles its way into nothingness--reminds me of the electronic treatments on the soundtracks to early to mid '70s films like 'Klute', 'The Anderson Tapes', etc.).
