Pig Rider
Heterophonies With Bloody Turkey Sandwiches (2cd)
Founded in Kent in the late sixties, Pig Rider and its many off shoots have seen nearly 60 different players. Original members Colin Kitchener and John Mayes however have always been constant factors. This CD contains two albums (1974's 'Bloody Turkey Sandwiches' and 1975's 'Heterophonies') which were pressed by the UK custom label Deroy in editions of only six and five copies respectively. Musically we're talking electric acid folk with a stoned DIY vibe and lo-fi sound, bizarre and funny lyrics, effects, backward bits, surreal humour, psychedelic skiffle, old-time music hall parodies and brilliant folk-rock-pop. Not only for fans of the Incredible String Band, Bonzo Dog Band, Syd Barrett or R. Stevie Moore... Comes with sound from the master tapes and a booklet containing photos and lyrics.
