Rare - Unreleased - WEEN (Mollusk Sesh)
On the eve of the release of their new record La Cucaracha (out tuesday) Dean Ween posted some really awesome shit over at Ween's website this weekend. Damn, they are so good to their fans, seriously.
While cleaning out their recording studio, the dudes found old tapes from when they were recording The Mollusk. Apparently they started the sessions for that record in a beach house in NJ which flooded after a frozen pipe issue. Due to better recording options, laziness, touring, etc - they decided to ditch these tapes and rerecord. Read about the whole story here (under the Waste tab)! The cool thing about these versions here are they are the first crack Ween had at these songs - some other White Pepper stuff shows up as well as a Shinola jam, and there are 2 completely unreleased songs here. First ever versions of songs like Flutes of Chi, Ocean Man, Etc. All sound way different and sound quality is EXCELLENT.
I downloaded it from the Ween page (Deaner said it was only going to be up for a day) and uploaded it to this page which will hang around for a week. So get to downloading:
