    Even though these are basically "demos", here's another case of "10 years ahead of his time"! Sounds like proto-alternative rock, proto-indie rock, and most obvious... proto-punk. If someone told me that this was Jello Biafra (before the name change) back in Boulder Colorado, with a make-shift band around 1974, I'd probably believe it! And here's the clincher: this was not recorded in the 1970s, this was 1968 and 1969 - amazing!
