Mudhoney is an American alternative rock band that was formed in Seattle, Washington in 1988. The band was created by vocalist Mark Arm and former guitarist Steve Turner after the split of the influential Seattle band Green River.

Although Mudhoney did not achieve the same level of fame as some of their label and city mates, they were a significant part of the early 90s grunge scene. With their enduring presence, they have become one of the most respected and long-lasting groups from that era.

Known for their raw and energetic sound, Mudhoney has left a lasting impact on alternative rock music. Their contributions to the genre continue to be celebrated by fans around the world.

Jackpot Records, started in 2004, operates as a reissue label featuring albums and bands that have been seminal within their respective genres as well as interesting new releases of various genres. Care is paid to giving each album the most authentic and true-to-form representation, with all recordings taken from the original master tapes whenever possible.

Jackpot Records began in 1997 in Portland, Oregon as an independent retailer set on getting music into the hands and ears of the people who love it. Opened by owner Isaac Slusarenko, Jackpot Records was founded on the idea that the music matters, offering a wide selection of both new and used CDs, LPs, DVDs and other collectibles. In 2001, a second location was opened in downtown Portland.

Jackpot Records enjoys giving back to the community that supports it by offering free, all ages in-store performances, signings and meet-n-greets, as well as an annual film festival that centers on music-related cinema.

Out of print in any format for 30 years this is the first time it has been reissued, and it includes the original cover artwork. Most of us likely missed Mudhoney’s Five Dollar Bob’s Mock Cooter Stew when it first cratered here on Earth in late 1993, but we can ALL learn from our previous mistakes right now!!! This is their Reprise mini-LP for all to devour in real-time and roll in its naked glory. Initially recorded by the band as an offering for their fans to devour while they were between full-length albums, the majority of ‘Five Dollar’ was recorded in one short, inspired burst on August 1, 1993, between the hours of 9:30 and 10:15 PM (with friend and Fastback Kur(d)t Bloch egging them on from the production booth). They smashed this out in just 45 minutes. It might be the band at their most ‘Stooge-esque’ since there is no flowery imagery; nothing to misinterpret; just in-your-face blunt despair (in that department, Black Flag’s Damaged LP comes to mind, especially in Mudhoney’s gleefully punishing highlight: ‘No Song III’). Within two seconds of any of these songs hitting your mind (maybe even within one second), you knew it could only be Mudhoney. You can instantly recognise it, because they truly own it/you/the universe.
