All songs were written by Butthole Surfers, co-produced by Butthole Surfers and Ric Wallace, and mixed by Wallace. The album was recorded at January Sound Studio in Dallas. The album was originally released on Touch and Go, and was reissued on Latino Buggerveil in 1999. ''Hairway to Stevens 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. ==Music== The last full-length Butthole Surfers album of the 1980s marked a midway point in the band's career, straddling their psychedelic noise roots and the more accessible recordings that would follow. Like Butthole Surfers' previous releases, ''Hairway to Steven'' uses non-traditional instrumentation, extensive tape editing, and sound modulation. Unlike its predecessors, which relied almost exclusively on a foundation of electric guitar, bass, and dual drummers, it makes equally heavy use of the acoustic guitar. This was drummer Teresa Nervosa's final studio recording with Butthole Surfers. Live performances of all the album's songs, with the exception of "Julio Iglesias," were included on 1989's ''Double Live''. "John E. Smoke" continues to be a regular feature of their concerts. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hairway to Steven」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
