Hi,
This is only fun for me if I can do just a few albums! This is all from the Bonzo Dog catalogue.
Ali Baba's Camel - TE Lawrence
The Sound of Music//Music for the Head Ballet - Bob Fosse
We Are Normal - Peter Brook
Can Blue Men Sing the Whites? - The CHB
Tubas in the Moonlight - Bapu and Strummy love posts
Monster Mash - The whole Coffee House throng
Look At Me I'm Wonderful - All the Cakewalk wannabe musicians and stars!
The Strain - Marshall McLuhan
If you have not heard any of these songs, you do not know what you are missing, of course! Specially things like The Strain! Very important detail!
I'll do one for Amon Duul 2, but that will be very esoteric and strange since only a handful of folks here have heard it and know what it is about!
