Notes: A
fun little record that is full of bad puns, familiar rhythms
and entirely animal-centric. The cover tells us of the
bands leader, "Baja Sr." and a bit of his history. According
to the liner notes, "Baja was first inspired to do
the LP one night while watching a tattered old 8 mm rental
film. The picture was a travel adventure depicting the
age old battle between the sloth and his natural enemy,
the squid." So you see what we're dealing with here folks,
The cover art is a blend of the band the creatures found
within the grooves. Of note, Mr. Wechter can be found amongst
the players of Martin Denny's exotic combo.
