HOPELESSLY OBSCURE 1976 PRIVATE PRESSING!
"ABNER BURNETT AND THE BURNOUTS- CRASH & BURN"
1976 Worpt Records label
The condition of the cover is EX no seam splits or writing! The condition of the disc is VG+ to EX. It looks very clean with just a few light sleeve scuffs present but does suffer from a bit of a lo-fi pressing.
The back cover of Crash & Burn, credited to Abner Burnett & The Burn-Outs, shows the artist in a photo-booth with two black eyes, sustained the night before in a bar-room brawl. Variously described as “low-budget jug-band psychedelia” or "acid casualty Texas outlaw rock with an unusual dark feel overall", the album opens with the arresting line, “I woke up this morning and my liver was walking out the door”. The second song, Call In The Buzzards, begins with vulture imitations as Burnett intones, “I've been down on the stockmarket floor too long…” Crash & Burn culminates in an extended instrumental, inspired by Miles Davis' Right Off (from Jack Johnson), called That's What You Get For Calling Me A Spook. Gutsy fifteen year-old schoolgirl Cindy Geppert takes Billy Cobham's role on drumkit.
