Kiwi first press 1957. Record plays with a minor crackle in places.
Wild 50s novelty rock from Nervous Norvus - best known for sounding like he’s about to completely lose the plot mid-song. Ape Call is basically a jungle of daft noises over a rock’n’roll shuffle, and Wild Dog of Kentucky isn’t any saner. Bonkers stuff that makes you wonder how it ever got pressed, which of course is exactly why it’s brilliant.
FFO: Sheb Wooley, The Coasters, Ray Stevens, Big Bopper, Screamin’ Jay Hawkins
