Eddie Spaghetti has been the ringleader of the Supersuckers since 1988. But with the band’s creation of their own conglomerate (Mid Fi Recordings) in 2002, Spaghetti also found time for a tidy, good-timin’ solo career. Sauce appeared in 2004; it featured covers of outlaw country favorites from Kristofferson and Cash as well as a few Spaghetti originals. The Supersuckers were still a band during Eddie’s dalliance — they released a few live records and even toured with Pearl Jam. But by 2005 Spaghetti had found enough time and songs for another solo flight, and Old No. 2 appeared that October. According to Mr. Spaghetti, The Sauce showcases his “impeccable song choices and uncanny ability to sing the drinking songs for drinkers who like to drink the drinks.”
