Timeless Toothless Classic
I have rarely heard anything quite like "Lanky Dope", in this life, or the previous one. The instruction book for tape recorders in the 1970s should have included a copy of this record in the "do not do this!!.." department. But yet, the music, if I may call it that, is SO honest and SO in-yer-face/ happy-just-to-be-doing-it, that to these...

HISTOGRAM CURRYCOMB EN LA ANEMONE
Creepy hippie-haired head band, absolutely charming in its period-piece early 70s FAR OUT jamming, man. Some good covers, some even better originals. Murky tapedeck homemade stir-fry stew-fi. Strange and slightly off, you'll dig this album. Like a hole in the head. What a faded decade we made! I was there, in similar beatitude buzzings. Then play on.

This review is from: Confessions of a Big Lanky Dope (Audio CD)
I have rarely heard anything quite like "Lanky Dope", in this life, or the previous one. The instruction book for tape recorders in the 1970s should have included a copy of this record in the "do not do this!!.." department. But yet, the music, if I may call it that, is SO honest and SO in-yer-face/ happy-just-to-be-doing-it, that to these ears, it states what it means to be able to pick up an instrument, plug in and play. Pure and simple: it is joy, happiness and friendship on vinyl - now on compact disc. This album is the godfather of punk: sloppy & loud; the template for D.I.Y.: this band did it all themselves at home with 2 mics and 2 tracks; and a vision of the future: the core band is still doin' it today disguised as The Breetles. The music is shockingly open and real and adventurously un-professional. That Rhubarb's Revenge" exists today is tribute to the vision of its creators. That it is now available worldwide on CD, well, that's the rest of the joke...
