Cool-as-ice misanthropic philosophy from Bongo Joe (George Coleman - not the sax-playing jazzer) dispensed while beating out rocking rhythms on a 55 gallon Texaco Firechief oil drum with sticks made of hammer handles with rubber chair leg caps and hand oil cans jammed onto them filled with pebble and B-B shot to provide that maraccas sound. The theme of this jam: man's inhumanity to man!

  • nice carpet dude, is that Persian?

  • @Dimostheniskapa It is indeed. From the shores of the Caspian Sea. Well spotted.

  • Great, just great! Thank you for posting this! When was this released?

  • Late 60s I think, though he'd been doing his thing in front of the Alamo since the late 40s. Check out 'Transisitor Radio' by him which I've also put up. The LP has seven tracks, all killers.

  • Nice post!

  • Found this LP in a cut-out bin 20+ years ago, and bought it because it looked cool...a method that has served me well, leading me to Leo Kottke and Show Business Giants, as well as to this great album. Thanks for putting this up so I can share it with others.

  • THANK you sooo much uploader... EagerBoy59 i've been looking for this for Years!! with only half of the track cut off on a random cassette tape to listen to for joy in the down times.. what an amazing toon!!
