Free Music Notes for I Have Been To Heaven And Back: Hen's Teeth... Vol. 1
Free Music Review: an embarrassment of riches
Hit: 5 Stars
I have been to heaven and back serves two excellent functions.
It serves up to you a wealth of recordings previously available only on various artist compilations and a few alternate takes of tracks that have appeared on albums. Some of which I actually prefer; notably a full-length version of Funeral with an additional verse in the last refrain.
The other function it performs well is as an introduction to the Mekons. I'd recommend it to anyone I thought might be curious.
I disagree with the Bitchfork review that says it runs out of steam half way through. I say buy it, spread it out on the bed and roll around in it. All of it!
