Cat woman

“Girl with Cat’s Eye”   (I’m assuming that this is just a awkward translation and that she doesn’t have just one cat’s eye but “cat eyes”.   But she seems so sad.   Cat eyes can be exotic and quite nice.   It’s not a disease or something.)   Regardless I like the graphics.

Pot shot

David Peel and the Lower East Side “Have a Marijuana” Recrorded Live on the Streets of New York. 1968.   This is the debut record by New York street musician and John Lennon protege David Peel.   Peel plays guitar and sings (mainly about marijuana), it’s all live.   Fugs parallels are hard to avoid and there is the same type of parody here – “I Like Marijuana” actually got kind of popular – it’s a parody of “I Like Peanut Butter”   “Show Me the Way to Get Stoned” is a killer, nothing bad on here at all, a great piece of underground wildness caught on tape. (Review by Carl Slim)
