Graveyard Tramps Eat the Forbidden City Dog Food
(Tutman Records)
Three decades ago, Lux Interior compiled approximately half of these tracks on wax. Rudimentary Rhythm & Blues, Garage, and Go-Go Rock'n'Roll numbers appear, but offbeat novelty outings also rise and fit no classification devised by man. But Exotica (a designation that occasionally suits) proffers peculiar charm, and intriguing elements can be located. Eccentric song-pleasures are punctuated with promotional excerpts for drive-in detritus Girls For Rent, The She-Beast, Scream Blacula Scream, and Vampire Playgirls.
Discogs advises that the full title given above was the one Lux printed on his cassette compilation. It was abbreviated to Forbidden City Dog Food for the original vinyl issuance.
