Description
ARTIST: THE CIRCUS
TITLE: burn witch burn / bad seed
LABEL: OFFE 101
CONDITION: VG+ (close to M-)
COMMENTS: Ranked #236 on G45 Legends website -
"I was born in a taxi, in a thunderstorm, yes I was..." Not a good start, no wonder they call him the Bad Seed, wild as a weed. Electric organ and rhythm guitar work tightly together against the busy syncopated drumming and wailing harmonica to create a disturbed, frantic backdrop for the deranged threats of the criminally insane vocalist. "you better watch youself if I ever get free, 'cause you're the first one I'm gonna do in...". The flip "Burn Witch Burn" is equally off the wall "I grabbed the old hag and threw her on the ground, made sure that she was gagged and bound...". The whereabouts of this band is a total mystery, while the record was pressed in Houston there is no proof that the band were even from Texas (although in all likelihood they were). One copy only offered for sale in recent years, it's an ultra-rarity with less than 10 copies estimated to exist in collections. Hear "Bad Seed" on it on Flashback Vol. 3, and the flip on the Texas Punk From The Sixties LP"
