The Holy Modal Rounders - 1968 - The Moray Eels Eat The Holy Modal Rounders
The Holy Modal Rounders were an American folk music duo from the Lower East Side of New York City which started in the early 1960s, consisting of Peter Stampfel and Steve Weber. Their unique blend of folk music revival and psychedelia gave them a cult-like following from the late 1960s into the 1970s. For a time the band also featured prolific and famous playwright and actor, Sam Shepard. The fourth album, The Moray Eels Eat The Holy Modal Rounders, recorded in 1968, included "Bird Song". "Bird Song" was essentially Ray Price's "You Done Me Wrong" with altered lyrics and was prominently featured in Dennis Hopper's film Easy Rider. 01 - If You Want To Be A Bird (Bird Song) 02 - One Will Do For Now 03 - Take-Off Artist Song 04 - Werewolf 05 - Interlude 06 - Dame Fortune 07 - Mobile Line 08 - Duji Song 09 - My Mind Capsized 10 - The Stp Song 11 - Interlude 2 12 - Half A Mind 13 - The Pledge LINK
