Hindu Love Gods – Hindu Love Gods

Hindu Love Gods – Hindu Love Gods (1990 US Pressing) – VG+

Media: Very Good Plus (VG+) Sleeve: Very Good Plus (VG+)

Status: Great collector’s copy. The record has a few superficial marks but plays beautifully. The cover is in excellent shape, showing only very light ring wear on the front.

Hindu Love Gods is the legendary “drunken jam session” supergroup featuring Warren Zevon backed by R.E.M. (Bill Berry, Peter Buck, and Mike Mills, sans Michael Stipe).

Recorded quickly and loosely, this 1990 album is a cult classic of blues covers and garage-rock energy. It is best known for their incredible, ragged cover of Prince’s “Raspberry Beret” and a stomping version of “Mannish Boy.” A must-have for fans of R.E.M.’s janglier side or Zevon’s cynical wit.

Pressing Note: This is the original 1990 US pressing on Giant Records, pressed at Specialty Records Corporation (SRC).
