Ween - “Pork Roll, Egg, And Cheese” (The Pod, 1991)

To quote:

Mom, if you please,
Pass me the pork roll, egg, and cheese.
If you please.
On a kaiser bun.

People asked.

Hail, Boognish.

The cover art on this album is a takeoff of the 1975 The Best of Leonard Cohen LP record cover. Ween simply positioned a photo of Mean Ween’s head (wearing a “Scotchgard bong”) over Cohen’s cover art and did alterations to the title and other graphics. The copy of the Leonard Cohen record that Ween used had purportedly belonged to Dean Ween’s mother, Eileen Ween. The Pod, according to Ween-lore, was written under the influence of Scotchgard, but this was later refuted by Gene and Dean themselves as being “the most slime-bag thing we could think of”. The contraption on the album cover is not a Scotchgard inhalation device, but a bong-like device used to send THC directly to the brain by use of nitrous oxide, which was said to leave the user intoxicated for days^.
