Philosophy of the World by the Shaggs
Man,
oh man. If only, if only. Guess we can't change the past, but I know my
world would be different if I had have heard this album in 1965. It is
both inspiring and exciting. This is true punk music 10 years ahead of
it's time. Now, of course, I can see more of the roots of punk than
ever before - but man, oh man, I sure coulda used this album.
This is my first time hearing it, and already I know it's part of my heart. I don't know how I missed it. My mom, at least, could put up with Tiny Tim, but I am sure the Shaggs would have drove both my parents mad.
