What is a Fisteris?
"Mad Daddy" Pete Myers
From the man who coined the term "Wavy Gravy" this is a pearl of nonsensical wisdom.
You can hear recordings of some of Pete Myers' seminal broadcasts here (subscription required) or read more about his brief candle here and there...
If anyone has more of his recordings I would be very interested to know.

it's your own fault you know,
because err..."

I love this stuff too. Where can we find these pearls? Thanks & Cheers!
As far as I know there's only one 'commercial' CD of Pete Myer's stuff:
"MAD DADDY WAVY GRAVY! ATOM SMASHIN' ZOOMERATIN' MELLO JELLO RADIO BROADCASTS 1958-1964"
that I'd love to get my hands on (Crypt Records), plus CDROMs of some of his broadcasts turn up on eBay. I think he only cut a couple of singles, Fisteris is the only track I've been able to find (from Born Bad Vol5)...
