Tired of "Monster Mash"? Through with calling
"Ghostbusters"? If your Halloween playlist is
begging for something different, look no further
than the frightfully fun Music to Freak Your Friends
and Break Your Lease. Don't believe us? Take The
Bride of Frankenstein's word for it-she's on the
cover! Real Gone Music and Second Disc Records,
in our relentless quest to leave no musical stone
unturned, have given a new lease on life to one
of the most unusual records of all time. Upon its
initial release in 1974, this "Symphony for Tape
Delay, IBM Instruction Manual, & Ohm Septet"
was credited to "recognized raconteur, genius, composer,
musicologist, conductor" Heins Hoffman-Richter, whom the original liner notes blithely inform
us, "died from an ear lobe tumor." It turns out that the late Hoffman-Richter was none other
than best-selling poet and all-time cult music hero Rod McKuen...but you won't find any cats
named Sloopy here. Instead, Music to Freak Your Friends and Break Your Lease is Rod McKuen's
very own Metal Machine Music. He immersed himself in musique concr te, or music which
utilizes recorded sounds as raw material, for the most unusual album in his vast discography.
Like Lou Reed's later experiment in feedback and noise, Freak Your Friends features no songs or
traditionally structured compositions...but it just might scare off those candy-hungry kiddies
on your doorstep with its Moog-tastic mayhem! Simply put, this wild journey through the
electronic underground has to be heard to be believed...and this is its first-ever reissue. It
arrives on seaglass with black swirl vinyl limited to 750 copies, in a package that replicates the
collectible original release and also includes an insert with new liner notes from The Second
Disc's Joe Marchese. Music to Freak Your Friends and Break Your Lease will indeed act as potent
pal and landlord repellent...and it just might leave you shouting, "It's alive!"
