The other day I mentioned Biff Chomsky's chart-topping album of sentimental ballads entitled Songs For Drowned Kittens.
By curious coincidence, yesterday I listened, for the first time in God knows how many years, to One Lonely Night. This is a “Cold War operetta” by The Massed Ranks Of The Proletariat, adapted from the novel by Mickey Spillane. The lyrics are by Ed Baxter. It was released as a severely-limited edition cassette tape in (I think) 1990.
Anyway, have a listen to Mike's death-wish songand you will understand why I was struck by a spooky sense of connection to the past.
