[edit] Overview
The EP features the band's first material with guitarist Bruce Fairweather, formerly of bassist Jeff Ament's previous band, Deranged Diction. In June 1986, the band began production on its second EP with local producer Jack Endino at Reciprocal Recording in Seattle, Washington. Dry As a Bone was released through Sub Pop Records in July 1987 as the new label's first non-compilation release. Steve Huey of All Music Guide has called it Green River's "strongest individual release...perfecting their sleazy, raucous fusion of '70s hard rock and post-hardcore punk."[1] It was reissued in 1990 along with the album Rehab Doll (plus bonus tracks) as the Rehab Doll/Dry As a Bone compilation.
