April 4, 2023 Record of the Day

Among those who are not all that well known but have what could be called a cult following is Wild Man Fischer. Discovered by Frank Zappa, Fischer had been committed to a mental institution when he was 16 for attacking his mother with a knife. By his mid-20’s he had become an underground favorite with concert goers. In 1969, Zappa’s record company, Bizarre, released the album, “An Evening with Wild Man Fischer.” A copy can get you $400.00 today.
