Karl Blake-The Prehensile Tales (solo archives 1977-1981)

A commenter recently inquired as to whether I enjoyed the work of Karl Blake. To which I first thought “fuck yes I do,” and secondly “why haven’t I posted anything involving this insanely talented and prolific man?” So here is some, if only to set my worried soul at ease. Naturally, I could have posted some Lemon Kittens (I will most likely do that at some point), Shock Headed Peters are a definite listen too. The Underneath, the millions of other projects all want inclusion. But I think I’ll go with the solo works instead. If you’re a fan of any of the bands previously mentioned then this is required listening material. Now go get yourself a sundae. Extra nuts for you toughguy. Here
