The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band. Just saying the name makes you smile. If you think you don't know this 60's art school band, well maybe you're right, but you've probably seen them in the strip joint/club the Beatles and their mystery tour guest go into in The Magical Mystery Tour. And their influence can be felt in bands like Roxy Music, and Death Cab For Cutie. The latter taking their name from a Bonzo Band song by the same title. George Harrison sited them as his favorite band. My favorite tune in this collection has to be "Hunting Tigers Out In India". Look it up now!
Figured I'd use this blog to catalogue my record collection. I'll be providing some technical information on the albums as well as my thoughts. My collection is non-genre specific. I keep the bulk of them alphabetized by Artist. However, I also maintain a section I refer to as the esoteric field, which contains unusual records, and artists I wouldn't remember the name of if they weren't in this category. The Classical and Compilation albums are also in separate sections.
