's years with the
Vanguard
label. There's no
"Section 43,"
"Fish" Cheer I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin-To-Die-Rag,"
"Masked Marauder,"
or
"Not So Sweet Martha Lorraine,"
so casual fans would be better off picking up one of the more commercial "best-ofs" or better yet, original albums like
Electric Music for the Mind and Body
,
I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin'-to-Die
