On Joan Rivers

In 1987, after the release of what would be their last LP, Warehouse: Songs and Stories, Husker Du went onto the Joan Rivers Show and played "Could You Be the One." Great song, painful interview. Rivers asks them if they've gone soft and who is the party animal of the band.

I think the only thing that keeps Warehouse: Songs and Stories from being the best Husker Du LP is the production, which is kind of weak on the drums. Maybe it will get a re-mix/re-master someday. As it stands that prize goes to Candy Apple Grey or New Day Rising. I love the 1980's underground music work ethic: keep cranking out album after album of brilliant, ragged music rather than taking years and years.
