More Fugs


Ed Sanders explains how the Fugs ran into censorship problems from mass media and police problems when they started doing music (but were never hassled when just doing poetry prior to that.) This from about ‘65 or so. Somethings never change, eh?

Also has live footage of some of that very same music.

Before psychedelia, before punk, before all of it

… were The Fugs, maybe the first DIY / protest band ever. (This was recorded sometime in the mid 60’s.)

They are still recording and their recent The Fugs Final CD Vol. 1 is maybe their best ever. Seriously. Vol. 2 is coming soon. Website.

They had a profound impact on my tender young psyche and I thank them for it.
