II & III
''II & III'' is a 1986 album by musical group Camper Van Beethoven, released on Pitch-a-Tent and Rough Trade. It was the band's second album. After releasing their debut album, original drummer Anthony Guess left the band, and guitarist Greg Lisher joined. With the band temporarily lacking a drummer, guitarist Chris Molla played many of the drum parts on ''II & III''. As the album was being finished, they finally found a permanent replacement for Guess with Chris Pedersen, who ended up playing on only one song, "We're a Bad Trip". The album also found violinist/multi-instrumentalist Jonathan Segel singing lead vocals for the first time, on the tracks "Chain of Circumstance" and "We're a Bad Trip", the latter which featured him and Lowery trading verses. ''II & III'' found the band already moving past the mixture of faux ethnic instrumentals and absurdist folk-pop-punk tunes of their debut album, for an even more eclectic sound, including elements of Americana, psychedelia, a ...

The Santa Cruz Years
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic pr ...

Tusk (2002 Album)
''Tusk'' is a 2003 studio album by American alternative rock group Camper Van Beethoven, a song-for-song remake of the Fleetwood Mac album of the same name. Tusk is the first album the band released following its reunion, and the band initially claimed that it was recorded before their break up. However, it was recorded in the period leading up to their reunion tour. In an interview with the ''Chicago Tribune'', bass player Victor Krummenacher admitted that some of the band members hate the 1979 album, saying that it was "like the '' Magnificent Ambersons'' of rock, a work that's supposed to be good, but is really just a cocaine-damaged horror of excess. Which is why we took it on, I suppose, and I think we improved upon it." Track listing Disc 1 # "Over and Over" (Christine McVie) – 4:48 # "The Ledge" (Lindsey Buckingham) – 2:06 # "Think About Me" (Christine McVie) – 2:48 # "Save Me a Place" (Lindsey Buckingham) – 3:23 # "Sara" (Stevie Nicks) – 4:56 # " What M ...
