Sign in to disble this ad
I got the new Les Claypool CD today. I love the album, but there's something in the credits for the song "Back Off Turkey" that confused me.
It says:
Les Claypool--Vocals, Bass, Percussion
Then it says:
Cage Claypool--Percussion
Lena Claypool--Marimba
So I'm wondering....who are these other Claypools and why have I never heard of them?

-Mark | We also learned that "Spelt" is spelled with an "-ed." Wacky Canadians.

And BTW, this album rules.
And BTW, Les used a bass banjo a few times on Pork Soda and Punchbowl (probably more, but I know those 2 for sure).
