Knoxville Girls

***The self-titled debut by Knoxville Girls (Jerry Teel, Kid Congo Powers, Bob Bert, Jack Martin and Barry London) was a soul-stirrer. It was countrified. It was a rock'n'roll testimonial. It has continued to sell since its release last September. It was described as Charlie Feathers backed by the Velvet Underground. To say that In the Woodshed, a live document, leans toward the latter would be a gross understatement. Recorded this past year at Maxwell's, this ultra-crude live album captures all the atonal noise and sonic drone of their live shows. Several songs not featured on their In The Red debut appear here, including a rendition of the Shangri-La's "Sophisticated Boom Boom" sung by Kid Congo that'll drop your ass out of a cropduster bi-plane onto a hay bale. Packaged to look like an old Stones or Dylan bootleg - to match the sound quality - In the Woodshed comes in a white, hand-stamped jacket with a paper insert. Ah, the good ol' days… One time, very limited pressing..
