10,000 Maniacs

Great band, terrible name. Maybe that’s why 10,000 Maniacs failed to achieve mainstream success in an era when absolutely nothing important was happening in pop music (unless you consider Guns ‘n’ Roses important).

Anyway, here’s Natalie Merchant, Steve Gustafson, and the late Robert Buck (yes, Peter’s brother) performing “Dust Bowl” in 1989 — one of the best tracks on an almost completely forgotten-about album (Blind Man’s Zoo).
