WAVY GRAVY-type albums

[S.Law]

I love these types of albums. There always seems to be a new title lurking around, so I was curious what all is out there. I know of:

 

THE BIG ITCH

MELLO JELLO

WOWSVILLE/WEIRDSVILLE/WILDSVILLE

MAYHEM & PSYCHOSIS

MADAME RITARD'S HORRORS OF THE WAX MUSEUM

 

more?   thanks in advance for any recommendations...

Great comps indeed !!! These are more on the roots & country side of lunacy. And I remember you even done a show about this cool serie once but, right now, I'm too dumb to find the link and post it here...

In a similar vein (I mean hillbilly psychos, rednecks on drugs and other kind of maniac cowboys), I'd also recommend the fabulous GOD LESS AMERICA compilation.

Have the at the party comps too but the others are abolutely new to me - any chance to get soundfiles of these please ?

 

Sorry, but I'm not into sound files. "Real Weird Man, Like Wow!" and "Creatures From Outer Space" are fairly recent in-print Australian releases. "Beat, Beat, Beatsville!" has the CD version pictured earlier but there was also a vinyl release with different front cover and title:

 

 

"Rock 'n' Roll - The Untold Story Vol. Six" was part of a bigger series of comps with different themes for each volume, with #6 being the novelty / party record.

These are sooooooooooooo twisted recommend these for sure.

I may has missed reading about this one, I'm sure you've all heard about it but you never know 'The Wild Wild World of Mondo Movie Music' on Big Beat

Read on some blog reviewing Wavy Gravy "That you can't listen to these for too long as they loose their novelty/weirdness" I beg to differ, I don't listen to much else!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
