This is the 40th anniversary re-issue of the legendary 1959 LP. First time ever on CD in an exclusive arrangement with the Stanyan Music group. This coffee-fueled tribute to/parody of then-contemporary Beat culture has stood the test of time and serves as an authentic peek through the keyhole of American bohemian culture of the 1950’s.
