WE'VE COME A LONG WAY IN 50 YEARS, HAVEN'T WE?


Well hello dare Massuh Banjo! You get the distinction of being the very FIRST bad record cover here on the Island of Misfit Vinyl. Because you suck on so many levels. The hair, the shirt - they're all wrong. And lawdy be, that ain't even a good blackface! I sees “Camptown Races” made the cut, and it wouldn’t surprise me if “Ol’ Man River” and “Pick a Bale of Cotton” are also on here, nor would it surprise me if these albums were originally sold somewhere outside of Knoxville by a guy named Cletus from the back of a giant Ford F150 with a gun rack and horn that plays “Dixie.” No doubt about it, “Hey, Mr. Banjo” is bad on so many levels it transcends bad. And if you’re not sure why, don’t even axe.
