Album Description Camper Van Beethoven - Self Titled continued the band's focusing in on the proto indie rock sound, with touches of country and featured outstanding tracks, such as "Joe Stalin?s Cadillac", and a reverent version of Pink Floyd?s ?Interstellar Overdrive". Following the third album?s critical acclaim, the band public notoriety grew massively with national tours with bands such as R.E.M. and 10,000 Maniacs. Similar CDs

CD ReviewsGreat group, good album Daniel E. Fox | Phoenix, AZ | 03/01/2005 (4 out of 5 stars) "I was a teenager when this first came out. I always LOVED the song "Good Guys and Bad Guys," and I still do. It's one of Camper's catchiest, funniest, and most memorable songs. The rest of the album is a lot more trippy and psychedelic than you might expect from "Good Guys and Bad Guys." There's a nod to Pink Floyd, as well as many references to Led Zeppelin. Camper Van Beethoven's sound is very difficult to describe if you have never heard them...rock, folk, country, middle eastern, reggae...all of it is mismashed into something completely new and foreign-sounding. They rely heavily on the violin for some of the main melodies...they are capable of rocking out and also capable of very subtle, intricate music. What I liked about them was they ALWAYS had a sense of humor and NEVER took themselves too seriously, even in their trippiest, most psychedelic songs. Intelligent lyrics, great deadpan delivery by Dave Lowery, and best of all...they are back together now (New Roman Times, their latest CD, is excellent). This CD has some extra material on it and is really a good bargain for the price." Finally! John Hands | Fresno, CA United States | 05/01/2004 (5 out of 5 stars) "I'm so glad this CD, along with the other Camper stuff has been reissued outside of the box set. I still have my original tape that I played pretty much every day driving to my R.O.P. class at the Monterey Airport, or driving to Santa Cruz to try & find old records before the earthquake. My favorite CVB record!John Hands
