DOGGEREL BANK-SILVER FACES, LP, 1973, UK




The first of two albums by this fantastic, forgotten and determinedly wacky UK outfit, Silver Faces is probably best understood as a quintessentially British spin on the sorta absurdist polit-rock of Germany's Floh De Cologne (particularly circa Fliessbandbaby's Beat Show), though the particular (sub)cultural lens it's being viewed through here renders the results somewhere between Monty Python, Daevid Allen's The Death Of Rock, The Bonzo Dog Band, that "Hare Who Lost His Spectacles" bit on Jethro Tull's Passion Play and, when they're rocking out a bit, even a bit of an akin to the Chou Pahrot LP that I'm also sharing today.
