The Meat Puppets Be Hep!
Richard Grabel, Creem, November 1986
TALL, THIN, with long black hair framing a face that, when relaxed, takes on an angelic sweetness, Curt Kirkwood, the singer, guitarist and main songwriter of the Meat Puppets, sometimes comes across as a starry-eyed dreamer, a mystic of sorts. Other times, he's just kidding around. But even when he's not entirely serious, he often makes a great deal of sense. You have to listen for the logic buried in the seeming non sequiturs.
