Synopsis

Product Description
Outertainment brings together for the first time two legends of Freak Folk and icons of cartoony musical madness, Peter Stampfel and Baby Gramps. Peter Stampfel, co-founder of the Holy Modal Rounders, has been described by critics as 'next to Bob Dylan, the nearest thing to a genius folkiedom has thrownup.' Part Spike Jones zaniness, part Alan Lomax reverence and part twinkle-eyed '60's freaked-outness, Stampfel is a rare performer - one that endures through the decades, sounding always contemporary and innovative, even when playing songs a century old. Baby Gramps is an astonishing amalgam of everything that anybody's ever heard from Uncle Dave Macon, Charlie Patton, Blind Blake, to Mississippi John Hurt, Captain Beefheart and Popeye the Sailor Man. Gramps has created a highly developed, utterly original musical concoction that is easily the most intriguing synthesis to come out of the roots revival.
