Refuse To Be Burnt-Out, 1984
Written by Tuli Kupferberg
The Fugs were an avant-garde proto-prog band, truly counter-culture, underground, like a Doors with a dark sense of humor. The FBI apparently kept a thick file on this band, calling them repulsive. "Who can kill a general in his bed / Overthrow dictators if they're Red? / Fuckin' A, man! / CIA Man!" This is a live version; the original was released in the 1960s and included on later versions of their first album. Unlike a lot of angry political underground bands, these guys can hold their own musically, too.
