Mad Daddy Memorial EP Vol. 1
The Mad Daddy scatters hep patter like Lord Buckley on orange sunshine. Just as I'd hoped , this fine slab of wavy gravy appears in putrid purple to match the cool ghoul cover art. His brobdignaggin' bellows of joyful psychosis bring out the boondogwe in me. The A-side , his rightfully famous single , "What is a Fisteris?"is solid , jack . He's no hack on this shellac. Martian muntabwe in it's purest , undiluted form. The folks at Norton were nice enough to include the satanic backmasked message played in reverse so you don't have to screw up your needle trying to figure out that if he said it in English , he could turn this record company into a parking lot (Which it probably is , now.). The Mad Daddy is real gone , but the oobaladee of the obsconce nebulance fehula bah lives on.

A great listen.
I never lived in an area that had Mad Daddy exposure. I bought this record out of curiosity because I have heard so much about him. I enjoyed every minute of it. Now I know why he is so legendary. It must have been great to turn on your AM radio on a Saturday night while riding in your '64 Impala! There will never be days like that again!
