It's not the original band, but they are great. I especially dig, the bowing cello player. I grew up on R. Crumb's art (when ever I could nick a Motor City or ZAP "Comix" from the local "head" shop" At 15 or 16, I Looked 12 and you had to be over 18 to buy a R. Crumb comic. Since I did not have the bread anyway, I suppose I chose my only alternative... Mr. Crumb was a great influence on me. I especially loved the 78 RPM records of The Cheap Suit Serenaders! Making stereo 78 RPM on vinyl was a mistake as the slightest of warps would ruin the playback. They should have used the "Non Breakable" mixtures , -e.g. Metrolite™ or even shellac...if they could have found any, c. 1968. EMI produced Beatles 78 RPM singles as for the Indian and Pakistani Markets right up until "Paperback Rider" b/w "Rain" and a couple of tunes from Revolver. You see, these people did not have the disposable income to buy new record players. Mechanical 78 RPM players continued to be sold through the late 1960s! They did not need expensive mains current and they were low cost to build. PLUS, they had LOW carbon footprints. It's us westerners who are responsibly for most of the carbon that is destroying the Earth. I wonder if we are satisfied? The kids of India in the 1960s grew up listening to the same Beatle records I loved, -just at a few RPMs faster than the 45 RPM I was buying. (Probably pressed on the same material). YES, they are collector' items, alas they are usually not in good condition. SOoo, if you find one in good condition...sky is the limit, but I would simply keep the record as the music is not rare. I must have been an odd kid as I LOVED both Mr. Crumb's music and art. I am proud that Robert Crumb is a genius of my generation. Golly, my generation did not live up to our youthful boasts, we screwed up the world for the current middle-aged people, but they have done even worse. I appologise to all the younger people from my Hippie generation who royally screwed over The Earth. -Hippies, Like Bill Gates... Global warming is not jolly joke. It's too late! If we had started in EARNEST 75 -100 years ago, we might have had a chance. People forget all the carbon that the Industrial revolution spewed into the atmosphere. I can remember the fogs in London and the smogs in LA and NYC. What to do? Get comfortable. Situate your body for an unnatural manipulation. And, kiss your arse goodbye.
Wish I could hit thumbs-up eleventy times on this. Thank you all!
Wow ! You guys are still doing it. " Keep on Truckin "

Love it!
What?!?! So cool! Y'all sound so good.

The title of this song is actually “Get a Load of This” It is however, like a handful of other songs, based on Luke Jordon’s “Keep it Clean"
