As quakity says, "Swinburne Stomp" is a reading & sound interpretaion of the poem "Before the Beginning of Years" by A.C. Swinburne (1837-1909). Info:
the poet = search wikipedia for 'swinburne'
the lyrics = search plainfeather.blogspot.xxx for 'swinburne stomp'
@quakity --- You had stellar development years if singing Fugs songs at 15 years old! Jealous I am.
Thanks for posting, oppositecar. Sad social commentary only 750 views after 10 months. Track #10 "Nothing" suddenly rings true.
This album was originally called "Broadside", I think. In any case, my friend Bob and I would chant Swinburne's "Before the Beginning of Years" ala Fugs on the way to high school for most of our sophomore year. I got interested in poets and poetry because of this strange performance. Thanx for the post!
Ahh sweet youth, Greenwich Village and those hippy chicks.. The Cafe WA, they would serve 14 year olds in the afternoon, as long as you kept your cool. America was a fun place in '65.
