S6E314 - Merrell Fankhauser & HMS Bounty 'Things' with Mick Hans

That Record Got Me High Podcast

Returning guest Mick Hans brings us a lost 60s nugget this week, as we explore the music of singer/songwriter/guitarist Merrell Wayne Fankhauser and his 1968 release: Merrell Fankhauser & HMS Bounty 'Things'. It's as obscure a collection of wonderfully executed psyche/pop/blues as you're likely to come across, and we're here for it!
