Human Skab, “Thunder Hips And Saddle Bags” (Family Vineyard, 2010; original recording 1986)
Recorded in the mid-‘80s, this is the sound of a very hyperactive and hyper-imaginative ten-year-old boy banging on anything in sight in an attempt at “African music” while delivering stream-of-consciousness rants about nuclear war, He-Man, children’s graves, throwing rocks through people’s windows, and many other topics. This is great, with an emotional range and sense of news, protean creation that puts most artists two or three times his age to shame.
