Piece of Cake (1992) |
Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge is the third album by the grunge band Mudhoney. It was recorded in 1991, at a time when the band was thinking of signing to a major record label, but they decided it be released through Sub Pop. Guitarist Steve Turner has said that the album is his "favorite Mudhoney album as a whole" and many critics agree that the band reached a peak on Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge.
The album is named after a mnemonic used by music students to recall the notes (EGBDF) on the lines of the treble clef (the mnemonic also appears as "Every good boy deserves fruit", "Every good boy does fine", "Every good bird does fly", "Elvis' guitar broke down Friday" or "Every good book deserves finishing").

[edit] Miscellanea
The cover art for the album was created by Tad Hutchison, the drummer for the Young Fresh Fellows. It has received criticism from some reviewers for its very happy, almost childish album cover (the opposite of the music, which usually just involved "sex, drugs, and rock & roll").
