This album is proof that you should never ever take a journo or critics word on an album, or any album for that matter. You have ears, comprehension skills and you're here so make up your own mind.
Wireless enthusiast intercepts Government secret radio band And uncovers secrets and scandals Of deceitful type proportions Aghast goes next door to his neighbor Secretly excited, as aforementioned Was a hunter whom radio enthusiast Wanted friendship and favor of A new face in hell! Nearly a new face in hell! A muscular, thick-skinned Slit-eyed neighbor is at the table Poisoned just thirty seconds before By parties who knew of wireless operator's Forthcoming revelation A prickly line of sweat Covers enthusiast's forehead As the realization hits him that The same government him and His now dead neighbor voted for And backed and talked of on cream porches Have tricked him into their war Against the people who enthusiast And dead hunter would have wished torture on A servant of government walks in And arrests wireless fan in kitchen For murder of his neighbor A new face in hell! A new face in hell! A new face in hell! The dead cannot contradict Sometimes the living cannot A new face in hell!
That solo Saxophone at the very end that wails alone in the dark cold drear of the night always makes me want to weep openly in front of complete strangers. Thank you.
Thank you for this song. But surely you don't want to kill all the hippies? Just the greedy ones: the ones that don't know how to give. I'm going to listen to Prince now.
My Fugs albums were stolen in 1969. Wow. How great to hear them 50 some years later. For me, one of the most beautiful and haunting songs of the era. Don't know why no one ever picked it up. Thanks millions!
I love this song so much. I got to see it live two nights in a row as they opened for my fav band. It broke my heart how many people around me hated the band and didn’t care. I had goosebumps the entire time. How can someone not appreciate how gorgeous this song is?
