I've heard Tommy the Cat more than a few times, usually on mushrooms and probably thought it was just Les doing different voices!

This is definitely the case for the Suck On This version. Though Sailing the Seas of Cheese was the first version I heard.

I still haven't paired mushrooms with their Willy Wonka album, but very much want to one day.
 
Waits is the voice of Tommy the Cat on the Sailing the Seas of Cheese version; he's also on that Courtney Love uh, "tribute", 'Coattails of a Deadman'. on bone machine, Les is on 'earth died screaming' and brain is on 'such a scream' and 'in the coloseum'. ler les and brain are all on 'big in japan' on mule variations. les is on real gone on three songs (hoist that rag is one and i can't remember the others) and brain plays drums on like half the album.

..then there's the covers....

My local store from when I was in college has an og copy of rain dogs for $100 with the original insert. They said everything looks great. A few little marks on the disc that he doesn't think will cause anything on play but he's going to play test for me. That's a good price right?
 
Up to you.

I paid $100 for a NM OG last year and it’s been 100% worth it for me. YMMV
 
Was leaning towards buying it but just got a message that the spots were loud pops and when the shop owner was in the bathroom while it was playing his employee sold it. Guess the universe says that wasn't it
