In a restoration personally overseen by Les Claypool, Primus' acclaimed Sailing the Seas of Cheese has been remastered for the first time since its 1991 debut by founding members Claypool and Larry LaLonde.
Released in May 1991 by then-fledgling Interscope Records, Sailing the Seas of Cheese was Primus' second studio album and major label debut, featuring the singles "Jerry Was a Race Car Driver," "Tommy the Cat" (with Tom Waits voicing "Tommy the Cat"), and "Those Damn Blue-Collar Tweekers." The music videos for "Jerry Was a Race Car Driver" and "Tommy the Cat" received heavy play on MTV and the album hit #2 on Billboard's Heatseekers chart, peaking at #116 on the Billboard 200.
