From the bowels of my collection comes - The Fugs! As stated in the title of this first pressing on Broadside, they are performing Ballads of Contemporary Protest, Point of Views and General Dissatisfaction.

It is not a gatefold cover, but it has a cardboard divider that separates the vinyl from the inserts. There are two inserts included with the LP: a four-page paper that documents details of the songs and their lyrics as well as a print of the "Pyramid of Capitalist System", originally on the cover of the 1911 issue of The International Worker.

If one had any doubts as to the nature of the aural material contained on the disk, that insert alone should remove them.

As music, it doesn't appeal to me. Although it is clear they do not take themselves too seriously and that aspect makes it interesting. As a collectible item, it's super rare because it is a first pressing with both inserts and at the time was only available for purchase from Ed Sanders's bookstore in the lower east side of NYC. And this one made it through the cultural revolution in damn near mint condition. Unlike most all of those types of records, and many of the people, for that matter :)

Indeed... that's an interesting piece of history you got there.

^ I feel like I've unleashed a monster! :lol:

Playing "Double Crossing Blues" by Esther Phillips with The Johnny Otis Orchestra, comparing it to "Heartbreak Hotel" by Elvis, and reading how Johnny Otis got sued by the writer of the first tune as well as a history of US copyright law. Planning to make a video on this for my music channel.

But right now it's funk and soul for my show Monday, including Rhythm Heritage doing "Theme From S.W.A.T." :)
