By 1996, the band Ween’s sense of humor was well established in music circles, although the album the band released that year, 12 Golden Country Greats may have still surprised some as the group’s founders, Dean and Gene Ween, held strong to the record’s title and confined themselves solely to country sounds. (That said, the record contained only 10 and not 12 tunes.) We’ll hear music from Ween’s 12 Golden Country Greats on this episode as well as music from Chris Stamey’s latest, Modernism.
