Sleepytime Gorilla Museum
Great American Music Hall
San Francisco, CA
November 3rd 2004

Reposted from November 2020

Remastered audience recording.
The phrase avant-garde is bandied around a lot.
Rarely is the guard more advanced than Sleepytime Gorilla Museum.
I'd describe it as brilliantly organised chaos.
It's a very good recording of very strange music.
If you are not familiar with them but go for Henry Cow,
Virgin Prunes. Cardiacs and King Crimson you may well enjoy it.
It may disturb you. It scares the willies out of me.
I'm kidding of course...once you have heard Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music
everything else sounds like ABBA.
