Here's a great twisted take on the Leiber & Stoller-penned chestnut
Is That All There Is?, once made famous by Peggy Lee. Cristina's version got pulled soon after its 1980 release, as the no wave chanteuse's hilarious rewrite of the lyrics didn't go down so well with the famous composers duo. Which didn't stop it from becoming a bona fide cult classic of course. "Let's break out the booze and have a ball..."

I used to have this on 12" - Ze Records wasn't it? Great to hear it again. Thanks for posting.
ReplyDeleteShame you lost it along the way - probably worth a pretty penny now...
