Tired of "Monster Mash"? Through with calling "Ghostbusters"? If your Halloween playlist is begging for something different, look no further than the frightfully fun Music to Freak Your Friends and Break Your Lease. Don't believe us? Take The Bride of Frankenstein's word for it-she's on the cover! Real Gone Music and Second Disc Records, in our relentless quest to leave no musical stone unturned, have given a new lease on life to one of the most unusual records of all time. Upon it's initial release in 1974, this "Symphony for Tape Delay, IBM Instruction Manual, & Ohm Septet" was credited to "recognized raconteur, genius, composer, musicologist, conductor" Heins Hoffman-Richter, whom the original liner notes blithely inform us, "died from an ear lobe tumor." It turns out that the late Hoffman-Richter was none other than best-selling poet and all-time cult music hero Rod McKuen... but you won't find any cats named Sloopy here. Instead, Music to Freak Your Friends and Break Your Lease is Rod McKuen's very own Metal Machine Music. Like Lou Reed's later experiment in feedback and noise, Freak Your Friends features no songs or traditionally structured compositions... but it just might scare off those candy-hungry kiddies on your doorstep with it's Moog-tastic mayhem! Simply put, this wild journey through the electronic underground has to be heard to be believed. It arrives on dark and stormy night vinyl to commemorate the circumstances surrounding the birth of Elsa Lanchester as Frankenstein's bride, in a package that replicates the collectible original release and also includes an insert with liner notes from The Second Disc's Joe Marchese. Music to Freak Your Friends and Break Your Lease will indeed act as potent pal and landlord repellent... limited to 500 copies!
