Liz Lyons “Up Your Ass”   Live at the Club Monacco   (1975)   This one is signed on the front:   “To Debbie and Vaughn, Enjoy me. – Liz Lyons”   From the liner notes above (yes, I thought you should see the rear):   The critics rave:   “When this kitten lays one on you, you know you’ve been laid…on” and “I laughed so hard I fell off my wife and broke my arm.”
