V/A-FLIES LIKE HOLIDAYS, LP, 1982, USA

A landmark compilation for those steeped in the Smegma mythos, this has long been one of the rarest entrees in their recorded canon or the discography of their Pigface label. Aside from 9 or so minutes of peak Smegma dementia (here ranging from deformed free rock blowouts to free improv digressions), this features the rare treat of hearing the one-off grouping of Smegma's Ju Suk Reet Meate and Jackie accompanying Lee Rocky (see Destijl Records for more info on this character) on Dickensmeglee's exceptional album closer. Elsewhere, Jungle Nausea (recently posted here) deliver another dead-on slice of tense and bent post punk drama and The Gormet Dogs effectively wheel between improv gooning and post punk spazziness. A treasure and one good enough to even make you overlook the turd in the punchbowl here: A Rancid Vat who more than live up to their name with a piss take cover of Three Dog Night's repellent "Joy To The World".

NOTE: Some folks were having issues with the original link for this, so I've re-upped a replacement link for it.
