Max Webster: Mutiny Up My Sleeve (1978)
We're just musicians
Here to thin the thickness of your skin
Mutiny Up My Sleeve may be the best Max Webster record, and it contains perhaps the best Max song, Beyond the Moon, the third moon song. Oddly, none of the moon tunes appear on the Diamonds Diamonds compilation from 1981. This record introduces Dave Myles, the new bass player. I think he did the job. Even though this might be the best Max record, my fav is still the debut.
Watkinson wrote two tracks -- Astonish Me and Let Your Man Fly - but doesn't sing either, which seems odd.
The Party, one of my top five Max tunes, appears on this record.
