The Deviants: Ptooff! (Deram)
Miles, Deram, 1967
FROM THE DEPTHS of London's secret UNDERGROUND headquarters, fully equipped with complex electronic machinery, a 20th century bohemia illicitly recorded, furtively edited at great cost to one and all, deviously distributed and designed, you are holding in your hands a prime over-ripe example of a gratuitously obscene, rockin' stompin', post-psychedelic, neo-Rock'n'roll, UNDERGROUND freak record.
