12 Golden Country Greats12 Golden Country Greats (named not for the number of songs on the album, but the number of session musicians involved) was Ween's 5th album, and third for Elektra Records. This album marked the first time Ween limited themselves to a specific genre of music. Bringing in a wide variety of seasoned (and sometimes legendary) Nashville musicians (including Buddy Spicher, Bobby Ogdin and The Jordanaires), the album sought to recreate the sound of golden-age country music with a great amount of success, while also combining this sound with classic Ween on such tracks as "Piss up a Rope." Later, Ween would assemble many of the session musicians again into a touring band dubbed The Shit Creek Boys. TracklistingSinglesPiss up a Rope was released as a single by Elektra and features the tracks "You Were the Fool" and "So Long, Jerry" (a track recorded during the 12 Golden Country Greats sessions that was never used on the album.)
