Wee Willie Shantz - Coo Coo Bird
(www.youtube.com)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZfwM3vem2AOkay, this one isn't so much humorous as it is just plain weird, but it amuses me greatly. It's one of the oddest things I've ever heard. I found it on a site called Oddball Auditorium which made a point of finding unusual records. They described it as follows:
Can you imagine John Cage jamming with Negativland inside a moving boxcar full of victrolas... or perhaps an old backwoods codger, swigging mash whiskey from a facejar, has been working on these songs for 40 years and he finally got a chance to record them, but the only band he could find was a family of occultists who live at the junkyard. Anyway this record has it all -- prepared sound objects, recording manipulation, sing-speak vocal somewhere between nursery rhyme and shaman ritual, semi-aleatoric stringed instruments, and even a sublime saxophone solo.
The flip side of this 45 is "Hush Puppy Hush", which is just as bizarre.
