Dr. West's Medicine Show and Junk Band

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dr. West's Medicine Show and Junk Band was a psychedelic rock band which is known for producing Norman Greenbaum and a minor hit called "The Eggplant that Ate Chicago". Unlike any other band of their genre....they took the Jug band scene into a whole new direction. Painting their faces, along with a trippy lightshow, set this already different band even further apart from any contemporaries.
