The Monks- Higgle Dy Piggle Dy

The Monks - Monk Time (1966)

The Essential Albums: “BLACK MONK TIME”

“We are ideologically in line with the Fugs and the Deviants, while musically it’s a surreal and derailing garage-rock that dominates among the nave where the monk guests of the German brotherhood launch their sermons. Music from hoods played by people with tonsures. An exaggeration that is a bit crazy and spectacular of what is happening in Italy during the same period with the introduction of the Beat Mass, which, however, has an ecumenical function that does not find a counterpart in the protest of the Monks’ music, definitive anti-heroes of the global beat scene”… so be it…

These Greeks, who were completely unknown to me until yesterday, are really talented, savansadir.

From a Tarantino-style soundtrack and similar...
 
Bob Marley and The Wailers - Talkin' Blues it's really hard to choose among the pieces in here, but this one just has to be part of this 'showcase'

The Essential Albums: “BLACK MONK TIME”

“If there’s a band, or rather an album, that has managed to earn a degree in avant-garde music for something as primal, rude, and ignorant as garage rock, that band is the MONKS. That album is BLACK MONK TIME. It is a demented rosary in which its twelve mysteries recite anarchic and surreal pacifist messages of burning relevance (Vietnam) and extraordinary premonition mixed with seemingly nonsensical linguistic elements that make one suspect the five monks have overindulged with the eucharistic chalice.”

The Reverend will clarify this very well in various installments... as far as I’m concerned, THE UNIQUE AND INCOMPARABLE ALBUM.

Thank Rev (72)
 
Carlo Buti - Finestra chiusa (con testo) well done the singer who strings the notes like cotton candy. a great song in the grandparents' playlist.
 
Mauro Pelosi - Dopoguerra …the usual genius but maybe I’m just too biased…
