The Blues Magoos - Electric Comic Book
Take my love and shove it up your heart sing the Blues Magoos in keyboard player/vocalist Ron Scala and bassist Ron Gilbert s composition Take My Love, and with the same punk drone they give the six minutes of Van Morrison s Gloria a strange amalgam of Iron Butterfly In a Gadda Da Vida noodlings meets Strawberry Alarm Clock, guitarist Emil Peppy Thielhelm, and his Blues Magoos spend an album reiterating what they said before. With the garage mayhem that is Rush Hour and the nine second conclusion That s All Folks, straight out of Bugs Bunny, Electric Comic Book is a vintage 60s psychedelic record which has everything but the ? the Mysterians meets the Electric Prunes drive of their smash single We Ain t Got Nothing Yet.
...Where the blues replaced the psychedelia, Electric Comic Book retains the brash 60s charm their hit single brought to the attention of the world, a track from the Nuggets compilation on the same level of punk majesty as the Seeds Pushin Too Hard. While Pipe Dream, which starts the album off, and There s a Chance We Can Make It, which follows, don t have hit potential at least the cool garage farfisa organ/fuzz guitar sound that appeals to so many fans of the genre is retained. Albert Common Is Dead and Summer Is the Man aren t earth shattering compositions, and maybe by this time the group started to feel limited by the constraints of psychedelia and pop Baby I Want You is simple, and not very original but that authentic keyboard/guitar 60s sound drips from groove to groove.
