Crystal Zoom - 'Dunedin Sound on 45(Original Version)'

Crystal Zoom - Waiting for my Woman - (a bastardized version of the Velvet Underground Original)

'Uptown Sheep' - from the cassette release 'Hooked on Crystal Zoom' - 1984.
Song by Mike Weston and Mahalski. Partly ripped off from Lou Reed's 'Dirt' of 'Street Hassle'. Recorded by Mike on a two track at his place. 
Basically its a neo-dadaist swipe at the universe from the point of view of a flock of sheep who are beginning to suspect that something 'is up'. They are of course correct.
There is a version of this song put out as a Flying Nun single(with 'Dunedin Sound on 45' on the other side) but I don't have it - and from memory while the recording quality on this one isn't great it does capture something of the original madness.
