 a very funny record, 2004-06-09

A terrific record - definitely groundbreaking, probably influential (it sure influenced me), and extremely funny both lyrically and musically (check the spot-on Bryan Ferry impersonation in "Dead Finks Don't Talk," the lyrics of "Paw-Paw Negro Blowtorch," or the sound of robot chipmunks in heat during the instrumental break of same).

The new remaster marginally improves the sound of the original CD release (to my ears, anyway), though the tinny, early-70's studio sound is still very much in evidence. For some reason the LP cover was butchered on the original CD (bad cropping job) but for the remaster Virgin has restored the original sleeve illustration to its full, weird glory.
