One of Blossom Dearie's fantastic albums for Verve – all of which stand as some of the best recorded work she ever did!

A pre-punk bit of charged, hard grooving Motor City rock from Death – a lost record that takes a tightly coiled, blazing approach to their influences of garage rock and psychedelia – and a record that's all the better in that it was recorded way back in 1975!
