THE UNDERTAKERS - JUST A LITTLE BIT b/w STUPIDITY

Liverpool's Undertakers were an odd gang; they were known to travel to and from gigs in a hearse! Must have made quite a stir (the similarly macabre Neil Young was also traveling around Canada and the USA in a hearse during '64-'66). This cracking group featured Jackie Lomax on lead vocals, and on this excellent double sider they take on Rosco Gordon's "Just A Little Bit" as well as Solomon Burke's "Stupidity". While Jackie Lomax' voice hadn't quite matured to the point that it did for 1968's incredible "Is This What You Want" LP, he does have a very manic energy and charm in his delivery here.

from 1964...

Both links "Stupidity"?

It's fixed, thanks for the heads up. I was frazzled because divshare was down this morning.

Thank so much! Sorry you're frazzled. Divshare has been rather cranky recently, hasn't it?
