40th anniversary reissue of their long out of print third album. Released in 1986 and produced by Jerry Harrison of Talking Heads, The Blind Leading the Naked saw Violent Femmes expand their sound beyond the stripped-down folk-punk of their early work. Incorporating a horn section featuring the Stooges’ Steve Mackay on saxophone, legendary guitarist Leo Kottke on the acoustic 10-string, and acclaimed experimental artist Fred Frith, performing an array of homemade instruments, the album marked a commercial breakthrough for the band.  Â
