I first became aware of the Fugs when my older brother brought home one of their records, around 1967. I think it was that summer or the one after (?) that I saw the Fugs at the Fillmore east during the WBAI Radio Community Breast event.
The Fugs will live through their music for a very long time.
Their music and poetry may even outlast *nothing*.
Hi Madeline, This is Coby Batty the Fugs...Thank you so much for writing and posting your very good song. I can speak for Ed as well, and I know he would whole-heartedly approve! Well, conceived, well-written and a very nice performance. We've a new record coming out and I'd like to send you a copy. It's called Be Free. I'll check this post soon and we can figure out how I can get a copy to you. Meanwhile, Be Free and Remember - Love to Power To Peace!!!...your supporter, Coby
Hey Coby! Enchanting to meet you. I really enjoy your Nothin song, it's definitely somethin. I dug the line "Buddah Nada". Thank you for listening and being a supporter. I would LOVE a copy of Be Free. And I would be more than happy to send you a copy of my personal record when I am finished recording here at school. Thanks again for listening and keep writing! You're awesome. Love, Madeline Spooner
actually, yes at an open mic...and it was horrible. I got nervous and I couldn't hear myself at all - so I basically just said "okay, I forgot all the rest of my chords..NEXT!" hahah
Absolutely wonderful! Writing a song out of a quote by The Fugs' Ed Sanders. How far out is that?! We need you on the charts Madeline and not friggin' Taylor Swift!

It didn't work but it did introduce a bit of levity into the anti-war movement.
