The Dead Weather - Child Of A Few Hours Is Burning Death


Thursday, time for a cover.

Today's tune "Child Of A Few Hours Is Burning Death" originally written by Bob Markley, Ron Morgan of American 60's garage-psych band THE WEST COAST POP ART EXPERIMENTAL BAND and it can be found on the fourth album "Volume 3: A Child's Guide to Good and Evil", and was released on Reprise Records in May 1968. As with the THE WEST COAST POP ART EXPERIMENTAL BANDs earlier work, the album saw the band continue to blend psychedelic influences and complex studio techniques, and was marked by a bizarre fusion of innocence and malice in the band's lyrics. "Volume 3" featured the bands most ambitious music to date and the striking cover art of John Van Hamersveld who adding an abstract image which contrasted light and darkness, yet it failed to sell in sufficient copies to chart nationally. In more recent times, the album has been considered the band's most accomplished work and a masterpiece of the psychedelic genre.
