The Muzzy Band [197x] How Was It?

As this LP is from New Jersey it is long known to me & a few local friends and the last loose copy I had blew a mind bigtime...here's copy I got at the last WFMU Record Fair & 3rd I've had in 20 years...absolutely top (maybe THE TOP) crazy lounge rock act ever. Opens with ultra cryptic verbage by Muzzy (DEEP) then rips into version of "I've Got The Music In Me" that is unbelievable, wild with fuzz, gutsy vocals by Rosemarie & to take the cake they do a jam where she trades off utterly drunken scat singing with the fuzz guitar player riffing in response (or vica versa, actually,,,she sounds too loaded to be in control). Rest of LP is also total entertainment in genius sleazy Jersey bar mode. One look at Muzzy's pic on the cover and you know you're hearing a maniac. ONLY those into real people twisted sleazy lost weekends should go for this... [PM]
