That is a gem of a record -- and very proggy in the Beefheart/Mothers/"rock in opposition" sense -- and very "American" too!
To me they seem like a group without a genre though . . . nobody else really followed their branch of the tree ("big influence on punk rock", my ass!)
No sweat.
Now I'm wondering if there are any Czechoslovakian prog experts who can turn me on to more stuff in the Plastic People of the Universe vein (another group without a genre, although if they'd been German they'd probably have just about been shoehorned into krautrock) ... if there's any in existance at all.
I have a review of "Egon Bondy's ..." planned for Unsung tonight, as I have some time on my hands (for once) and no-one else has got around to it yet. More people need to hear that record, for sure.
