The Raging Peasants – Ballad of the headless skateboarder 7“
Sometimes it´s really weird what kinda artists recorded songs about skateboarding or let´s say at least with a connection to skateboarding.
These two guys out of Hadley, MA wrote a strange ballad about a headless skateboarder. Too bad I can hardly understand a word, but they try to make it a bit mystical and halloween-ish as it seems to me. Their music mixes folk with classic music (just check the instruments they are using). The song reminds me a lot of “Eleanor Rigby” (The Beatles). Hard to believe this was recorded in 1992.
Thanks to Kilwag for the tip!

Nice tune , thanks doc.
You are welcome!
I was wishing the title was actually Ballad of the Headless “Skateboader” =like it says on the cover, but the actual 7″ makes me realize it was a typo.
Wow, didn´t realize that typo on the front cover! It´s really interesting how much/less some bands/labels care about the correct spelling on front covers … btw that´s a good idea for my next post. I will show you my favorite “record cover typo” ;-)
