In 2008 both Sub Pop and Mudhoney are celebrating their 20th anniversary. This is the deluxe, re-mastered edition of "Superfuzz Bigmuff", containing the original EP in its correct running order, singles, demos, and two blistering live recordings from 1988, all re-mastered, or in some cases, mastered for the first time. "...for all the play and worldwide attention several Seattle-area bands got during the 1988-92 period, at the end of the day...there was Mudhoney - and then there was everybody else...These recordings were so life-affirming upon their release, connecting everything great about the sixties (biker movies, fuzz boxes, old guitars, three-minute songs) with the frothing, punk rock of the early 80s, that a whole new 'style' of music was born. They called it grunge, but to me it was amped-up, clear-the-room, ramalama rock...and it was about as joyous and as fun a noise as anyone'd heard in years" - Jay Hinman, liner notes.

Tracks 2-1 to 2-9 recorded on 2 inch 24 track, October 10, 1988 at the Metropol in Berlin during Berlin Independence Days Festival by a couple of anonymous Germans who changed reels immediately before "Touch Me I'm Sick". The first 30 seconds were missing and had to be spliced in from a widely bootlegged audience recording supplied by Dean Whitmore. We're quite impressed with the results if we do say so ourselves, thanks to the skills of one William Inglot. Mixed at Avast Classic, November 16 & 17, 2007.
Tracks 2-10 to 2-15 broadcast live at KCSB, Santa Barbara, November 16, 1988. A cassette recording of this was provided by Jay Hinman.
Mastered at Digiprep. Disc 1 remastered from the original tapes.
