Litter - Distortions [CD]

Christened after the buzzing guitar sounds emblazoned on each cut, The Litter's Distortions album from 1967 is as much a cornerstone of any '60s punk collection as Here Are the Sonics!!! or Black Monk Time. Kicking off with the smack-you-in-the-face fuzz of the all-time classic Action Woman, the non-stop raving album cuts up British Invasion covers like fellow Minnesotan Paul Bunyan hacking trees and scorches them in a bonfire that climaxes with a fierce rendering of I'm A Man. Your collection already has a space reserved for this remastered reissue of Distortions graced by a version of Hey Joe from the same sessions and six bonus cuts recorded live at the Electric Theater in 1968.
