Brute Force "King Of Fuh / Tapeworm Of Love" - Brute Force Records (BFR100)  Very Rare US pressing Original

Brute Force may be best known for a song that barely saw a release. "The King of Fuh", a song produced by The Tokens, prominently included at least two intentionally obscene double entendres, referring repeatedly to a "Fuh King" and telling everyone to "all hail" with a pronunciation that made it sound suspiciously like "aw, hell." The record was admired by Beatles George Harrison and John Lennon. Harrison used the already recorded demo track but had strings arranged and overdubbed for the record. Apple Records knew that partner EMI would never distribute it, so the company pressed and distributed 2,000 copies themselves in 1969 (catalogue number Apple 8). There was also a copy of the record on the US version of Apple, without a catalogue number (said to have been created as personal copy for an American Apple employee). Brute Force also attempted to have Major Minor records in Britain release the record but with no success. Finally, the artist issued the record on his own label Brute Force Records with an alternate B Side, "Tapeworm Of Love,"

Vinyl is nice solid VG+ condition.
