King Brothers With Okker T

The latest entry in worthwhile mp3 blogs is Static Party. They are opening my ears to a lot of excellent noise that I missed during my semi-hibernation musicwise in the '90s. Anyhow, Static Party featured an early King Brothers single a while back and I wanted to post some songs from an early King Bros. record that many of you probably haven't heard: their collaboration with an organist named "Okker T"- Oka of Lulu's Marbles according to this informative discography page.
I managed to miss the King Bros. a bunch of times and only saw them after their ultra-spazzout period but they were still pretty solid. Early on, they were definitely the best of the huge pack of busted blues wannabe Jon Spencer bands (viz. Estrella 20/20, Thee Antonio Three, Jighead) that seemed to dominate the Japanese underground rock scene in the late '90s.
