Reviews
- Hi, Teenage Cremation was written by Ian Mills, a folksinger from Newcastle on Tyne, who used to host and sing at the Bay Hotel folk club Cullercoats. I know, because he drove me mad with the rhymes while he wrote it!
The following submission appears on the rear cover of the album.
BOB HUDSON (real name Abraham Luigi Hudson--changed it in tribute to Bob Dylan) has travelled the world in search of Truth and Beauty.
He took up music as a career after hearing Sir Robert Helpmann sing "Blonde-Headed Stompy-Wompy Real Gone Surfer Girl', and was co-founder, with Big John the Trom, of the Electric Jug Band.
He studied satire in India, and found Fame playing Rhythm and Blues in England.
Bob has appeared frequently in movies, on TV, stage and radio, with Phil Ochs, Cheech and Chong, and Tommy the Sealion, to name but a few.
His greatest regret, in ten years of solo performing, is that he has never met a groupie.
He is well known as a topical humorist, due to an ability to pinch material before anyone else does.
This record should bring him the recognition he deserves.- It takes longer for me to receive a letter from my sons school which is on the other side of town.Great service and fast delivery.Will order again very soon.
