Guitars and Bongos
NAKED BEAST - s/t LP
$32.95
Limited to 500 copies only.
Highly recommended by Strangeworld.
NAKED BEAST started as a literary vehicle with CRIME members HANK RANK and others backing up a series of readings JOHNNY STRIKE gave in San Francisco with cut-up tapes, distorted guitars and old timey sound effects under the name REMOTE VIEWER. Strike met MICHAEL CAMPBELLl, a local artist who also worked in soundscapes and found sound. Another Crime later member JOEY D'KAYE came aboard to pick up a second guitar, synthesizers and theremin. With ROGER STROBEL on bass the gang morphed into Naked Beast. The group developed new material, but kept some of the spoken word, as well as the experimental spirit.
