I first heard the music of Ween while watching "Beavis & Butthead" back in 1994...they said "Ween suck"...and I totally disagreed! In fact, I think they are one of the greatest bands of all time, and when it comes to adeptness in all genres of music, they are certainly in a league with Frank Zappa. Ween hail from New Hope, PA and have been together since 1984. They spent … [Read more...] about Song Of The Day – “Tried And True” by Ween

Song Of The Day – “Reggaejunkiejew” by Ween
This is the 2003 “All Request Live” version of a song originally released on the 1994 “Pure Guava” record by Ween. Before anyone gets too excited, I’m a Jew and so is Aaron Freeman (aka Gene Ween), so don’t get it in your head that this track is slamming Jews, Rastas or even junkies. It’s just Ween, well, being Ween. The band has musically touched on its Jewishness before … [Read more...] about Song Of The Day – “Reggaejunkiejew” by Ween

Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Tried And True” by Ween
I recently discovered a two-CD download of “Caesar” demos for Ween’s eighth album, “Quebec,” that was released by Mickey Melchiondo (aka Dean Ween) on his facebook page a few years ago. “Caesar” was the original title for “Quebec,” and the demos were recorded while drummer Claude Coleman was recuperating after his near fatal car accident in 2002. Many of the demos feature just … [Read more...] about Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Tried And True” by Ween
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “I Can’t Put My Finger On It” by Ween
I post this track with heavy heart as the news broke today that one of my all-time favorite bands have decided to pack it in for good. I've been a WEEN fan since the early 1990s and have seen Dean (Mickey Melchiondo) and Gene (Aaron Freeman) numerous times over the years. I could have seen this coming since Deaner has been focusing more on his fishing business while Aaron … [Read more...] about Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “I Can’t Put My Finger On It” by Ween
