About this album

Chocolate and Cheese is Ween’s fourth studio album, originally released by Elektra Records in 1994. It was the first Ween album to eschew the four-track recordings of their first three albums and utilize a professional recording studio. However, most of the instruments were still played by Dean and Gene Ween, including their drum machine.

The album is dedicated to comedian John Candy, who died while Ween was putting the album together. “A Tear for Eddie” was dedicated to the funk/psychedelic guitar pioneer Eddie Hazel, who died December 23, 1992.

Ween originally wanted the cover to have a “gay sailor theme” but the studio thought it politically incorrect (possibly because of “The HIV Song” which is ironically cheery and upbeat), so they opted for the woman’s body on the cover. The band say that they never got to meet the cover model, Ashley Savage. The album cover is also seen on the wall of a dorm room in Road Trip.
