Hindu Love Gods ORIG US ST LP EX ’90 REM Warren Zevon Jangly Guitar Pop Giant Hindu Love Gods Hindu LOve Gods
Original US LP released in 1990 on Giant Records. Cat: 24406-1. Comes with printed inner bag which is in Excellent cpondition.
The Hindu Love Gods were essentially R.E.M. with Warren Zevon replacing Michael Stipe as front man. Always somewhat of a joke, the quartet did manage to release a self-titled album of cover songs that they had recorded in 1987 with leftover studio time. Loose and spirited, the group tackles a range of off-the-cuff covers that could be throwaways but for the sheer talent and charm of the players. Indeed, their spirited rendition of Prince’s “Rasberry Beret” even made the charts in 1990. A pair of Robert Johnson-penned blues classics and Muddy Waters’s “Mannish Boy” are attempted with similar aplomb. HINDU LOVE GODS is a rare kind of supergroup album: good-natured, unpretentious, irreverent, inebriated, and ultimately essential.
