Shockabilly- "Normal", Illinois, April 6 1985 AUD



Purportedly one of the last shows by Shockabilly the original and best psychedelic Post punk band..

LSD Country and Western was the first Chadbourne thing i ever bought when it came out , still a great chewy listen! , and what a fine introduction to the likes of Tom Cora and T.Kondo...

This is a hugely atmospheric tape recording, complete with drop outs ,bleed through and minor distortions ... lots of near chaotic frenzied improv ( Electric Rake ,heavily featured!) between typical deconstructions of classic 60's Songs..beautiful stuff!

I've retained the original seeders info file... he seems to find Eugene's Politics funny , perhaps dated and somewhat embarrassing ...., Fuck him ...Chadbourne's Politics are more relevant than ever!!
Chadbourne is selling some live Shockabilly shows, and i think the original albums are mostly reissued by Shimmy Disc Kramer's label ,now back in business!

Saw Chadbourne in El Paso soon after this... a true artist.

Normal was probably the perfect place for them to play.

Hey

I'm the guy who recorded this and shared it in the first place.

I say in the notes:
"Eugene seems to be a bit of a lefty.....lol".

Where do you get:

"... he seems to find Eugene's Politics funny , perhaps dated and somewhat embarrassing"

out of that?

Do you know what 'lol' means?

Anyway it's always fun to find one of my recordings shared.

I also shared my original recording of Eugene in a solo performance at the same venue a year or so later.

Would love to see a re-up here if possible! Also, any additional Dr. Chad posts would be very welcome!
