Henry Musikar asks:  
> Wasn't there an association with the Fugs?  (relating to the Holy Modal
Rounders)

Yes, I found out about that several years ago when I was playing the
Rounders album "Last Call" for a friend.  When "Romping Through the Swamp" 
came on he says I've heard that and begins searching his albums to
find--sure enough--a Fugs album with that song.  I think the link was
Peter Stampfel.  BTW, in my opinion one of the best little-known albums of
modern times is 1976's amazingly enjoyable "Have Moicy!" by a one-time
gathering of talent--Michael Hurley, the Unholy Modal Rounders, and
Jeffrey Fredericks and the Clamtones.  It's out on CD (Rounder 3010) but
may be out of print.
