For an underground band, in their lifetime, The Fugs made impressive inroads into the media

A group comprising (but certainly not confined to) Ed Sanders, Tuli Kupferberg and drummer Ken Weaver, 

The Fugs were as garish and impassioned as the ’60s themselves. 

Formed by poet Kupferberg and scholar/underground publisher Sanders, the band’s origins were in the Greenwich Village of the mid ’60s. 

By February 1967, founder member Ed Sanders had been on the cover of Life magazine ,

their friend and associate Allen Ginsberg had written their liner notes,

and The Fugs been asked to perform on the Johnny Carson show. 

This boxset enhances the superior must-hear of the band at their freakiest, 

most avant-garde and headiest psychedelic garage set of the 60's.
