Artist description
"Varius comparisons ( which, nonsensical as they
sound, add up in the end meaning Jack (pun intended)
would include, The Rocky Horror Picture Show,
Frank Zappa, Tom Waits, Pink Floyd, and the
Highlandand Southerner P&D's (Any othe pipe and
drum band in Hammerrock?)... I thin I even hear
Stravinsky humming in the background. Sounds like
a Bob Ezrin production. Could that even be
Mick Ronson playing guitar? (well..uh, no it
couldn't) Never runs out of steam either - man!..
Honest. It's as exiting as Destroyer!" Mike Trebilcock
WARNING This CD contains lyrics of an ironical nature and may be offensive to some.

Artist History
The vetern tubsman for 35 years and some 200
bands, (including Buxton Kastle, Teenage Head &
Ray Materick) Has released the second round of
his soak opera cycle. Unlikeit's predecessor, the
garage fueled Fairyland It Aiin't, this baby gets
the full treatment: over the top guitar figures,
horn charts straight out of Zappa's 200 Motels,
and a Greek chorus of femme singers. The exaggerated,
comic-book feel to the disk is brought back to
earth when Jack opens his yapand unleashes his elliptical
vision of the apocalypse. As narrated by, let's say, a
reformed rubby friend of Don GlenVliet. May I
suggest it's flat out great? I certainly may.
