Edith Massey - Big Girls Don't Cry 7"









































Egg Records, Unknown year. (approx. 1980ish)
Tracklist (as if it wasn't obvious):
01 - Big Girls Don't Cry
02 - Punks, Get off the Grass

get it here.

As noted on the sleeve pictured above - "the egg lady from pink flamingos", dreamlander Edith Massey reinvented herself as a punk goddess in the late 70s. Unfortunately, this is the only recorded document of that time period, though a few handfuls of photographs exist.
Pretty weird stuff, but really good sounding for some reason.

Short & sweet.
