Experimental Explorations with The United States of America

Our featured album comes from The United States of America and there's music from Shirley Collins, Egg and Part Chimp.

This week's featured album is the debut - and only - release by left field, experimental art rock outfit The United States of America. The album was described by it's vocalist Dorothy Moskowitz as being 'not half bad' and by critics as an 'ambitious, idiosyncratic debut album' and 'a near classic'. It is also included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. Elsewhere, there's music from Shirley Collins, Egg and Part Chimp.
