Feeding the Chickens, Winnescheika the Indian Maiden, and Little Dogs that Pee on Towels
I suppose I should not have been surprised to find a song poem album recorded the 80s--I suppose as long as there are starry-eyed suckers who want to pay good money to put his/her words to music, there will be Nashville music factories ready to record a "demo" in 20 minutes and quickly deposit the check. While none of these songs has a chance in hell to hit the charts, we can enjoy the strange fruits of their labors on the album Flowers of Love, in which you will hear tales of....well, feeding the chickens, Indian maidens named Winnescheika, and little dogs that pee on towels, right?
And the icing is that the songs are sung by Ramsey Kearney, whose recording of the song poem Blind Man's Penis is legendary.
