Here captured in all his unique obtusity, the mystifying, oblong, savoir flair of Peter Stampfel. Vocals a blare, old -try- me musician, ablaze at the top of the bottomless 1960’s. Jargon be dammed, he’s one of a kindness!
He got more mini -anthems than you can milk shake a stick at.!
Then there’s Peter’s latest hijinx, a song for each year of the 20th century. Mondo!
“Nobody” was done by the vaudeville superstar Bert Williams
