The Butthole Surfers' last album originally released in April 1988 on independent Touch and Go is a best of both worlds transitional work that blends the irreverence of their early years with the more focused approach of their major label days. Epic opener `Jimi' is twelve minutes of primal drumming, distorted vocals, Sabbath riffs, and related oddness. Hairway to Steven's title is a play on Led Zeppelin's popular song, "Stairway to Heaven." Some of its tracks also make allusions to other famous musicians, such as Julio Iglesias.
