Abbie Hoffman and The Joint Chiefs of Staff. Wake Up, America! Big Toe Records (1971)
\"We produced this rare album of America’s crazy comedian, revolutionary and hanky panky artist. It was recorded up here at the Zeeber Farm, in our own studio, Froggy Acres. But no record company would touch it. So we figured, what the hell, we’ll put it out on our own label, Big Toe. Originally Abbie wanted to call the label Mafia Records – “Cause that’s what most of ‘em are, you know,“ is what he said. It’s a funny, fuck off album, with Abbie doing his comic routines at colleges in Texas, New York and Canada besides up here in our studio. Abbie also sings America’s favorites backed by The Joint Chiefs of Staff. Wait’ll you hear “Our National Anthem,” or the classic “Cool Water,” or the heart tugging “Ave Maria,” or Abbie’s rendition of “Chicago,” and finally – “God Bless America.” A totally outrageous album. Recorded in 1971.\"
