Where you been

"Where You Been followed Green Mind two years later and was their most successful platter in terms of chart action, hitting the UK Top 10 and also spawning a hit single in Start Choppin'. Being released in the middle of the grunge boom they played a big part in inspiring may have helped sales, but it was an undeniably strong set of songs and performances too. Also they were now back to a band format, with Murph reinstated to full drum duties and Mike Johnson (ex-Snakepit) joining on bass ... These sets come with good sleeve notes having new observations from J Mascis and a full examination of each album by Keith Cameron. Though around the time of these two LPs many worshipped the bands Dinosaur Jr inspired through grunge at their expense, J and friends still remained at the peak of their powers and far cooler than the herd".
