The Exotic Ones and Cha Cha Heels!

"Cha Cha Heels (for Christmas)" b/w "Female Trouble"   digital tracks

(Self-issued)


These tributes to trash auteur John Waters were likely birthed in some dingy midnight movie house, one wherein congregate trench-coated headcases with googly eyes and rap sheets as long as Dawn Davenport is wanton. The A-side's jangly Pop confection is offset by the flip's enshadowed noirishness. Ornamented trees tumble.

(Trivia collectors note: Director Waters penned Female Trouble's theme lyrics, which were set to Jazzman Cookie Thomas's "Black Velvet Soul.")
