THE LITTER Distortions originally released on Warick in 1967, this was the debut album from this Minneapolis garage band, and although largely ignored in their time, the band have since attained legendary status among collectors of rare 60s garage punk, and are best known for their stand-out anthem 'Action Woman' - thanks to the 'live' and overloaded production, every cut burns with an unusual intensity[original copies change hands for up to $1000!].
...That's the great thing about rock and roll. On the one hand, this record is completely derivitive. Talented as this disc shows them to be, no-one will ever mistake the guys in the Litter for Great Artistes as Clapton and Townsend have oft been annointed. There's no pretense to blues tradition or pop-art intelligence in the Litter's emulation of their Brit-idols. They just go for the Noise, but somehow they get it, and it's beyond perfect. What we hear in the Litter's I'm a Man is not the genius of individuals, but the genius of an art form as a whole, that somehow found an expression of its essence in four-minutes of spirited emulation by some guys you've never heard of from the middle-of-nowhere...
