Mad Tea Party (Hide and Seek) and Perfect Mother (You'll No So Wit)
Vanity 7" Singles (1980)
De Music, Vanity Records, Japón, 1981.

Believe it or not, this record is even more essential and bizarre than the slab of baffling awesome that came before it. If words like "minimal", "outsider", or "post punk" press any of your brain's happy buttons, you'd do better to listen to this than to read whatever insufficient adjectives I can come up.
