I remember that record from back in high school / early college when I was buying every SST release, even the Tom Troccoli's Dog stuff.  It was good? I think? (the Ruthensmear, not the Tom Troccoli).


edit: belated apologies for not starting this down in the General Discussion.  I had this thought that the picture really summed up what the Best Show meant to me, but Show Discussion is a stretch I now realize.

somewhat absurdist, off kilter & bombastic.  I liked it then..and it still holds up for me now. (also re: the Ruthensmear & not the Troccoli)
