Congress Of Wonders

Sophomoric
Rare 1972 Original Housed In A Textured Jacket. First Copy We Have Seen In Eight Years. Jam-Packed Satirical Sketches With Barely A Breath Of Pause, The Members Taking Multiple And, At Times, Overlapping Speaking Parts, With Well-Placed Sound Effects Added For Good Measure. Not As Subtle And More Sex-And-Drugs-Oriented Than Firesign Theatre, Its Sketches Satirized Drug Paranoia, Political Figureheads, And The Health Food Craze. There Was Some Blunt Wit Involved, But It's Not As Subtle As The Best Of This Sort Of Thing Should Be, And Now That The Counterculture Has Become Accustomed To This Kind Of Subject Matter In Their Comedy And Popular Culture, It Doesn't Sound As Novel As It Did When The Lp Came Out. While Much Of The Album Was Constructed In The Studio, It Ends With A Surreal Mini-Drama, "Orpheelthis Unchained," Performed In Front Of A Live Audience.
