Liquor in the Front
Liquor in the Front (subtitled "Poker in the Rear") is the third album by The Reverend Horton Heat. It was jointly released by Sub Pop and Interscope Records in July 1994. Al Jourgensen (of Ministry-fame) produced the album.
The song "In Your Wildest Dreams" (along with "The Reverend" himself) was featured in a Homicide: Life on the Street episode from season four, entitled "Full Moon". Also, the song "I Can't Surf" appears in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3.
The album title is from a commonly known double entendre, "Liquor ("lick her") in the front, poker ("poke her") in the rear".
