BUFFALO TOM
Buffalo Tom
1989 U.S. pressing
Another from the Boston-centric pile of scores from my son and I’s trip down island.
This is to be filed under “GRAIL ACHIEVED”, as this was the ONLY album of Buffalo Tom’s I was missing.
Their first, & the only one that was released on SST Records. It was also produced by another Boston legend; J. Mascis of Dinosaur Jr..
One of my hometown’s most beloved bands, Buffalo Tom had a really great run. Every album they made was FANTASTIC, and they had a handful of signature singles like “Sodajerk” and “Summer”, and even we featured in the beloved #90s show My So Called Life.
This self titled album is BT at their nosiest and most ramshackle; something I’m sure you can blame Mascis for. 😂
Still, you can tell it is very much the same Buffalo Tom that would break through a bit later.
Incredible band, clsssic albums all.
