Judo for the Blind is the debut EP of noise rock band Tragic Mulatto, released in 1984 through Alternative Tentacles.

Release and reception

Despite the band's peculiar demeanor, Judo for the Blind has been received positively. Ira Robbins of the Trouser Press praised the record, saying that "some numbers are faster and well-organized to the point where they resemble a '40s big band on bad drugs; others could be an incompetent jazz combo vainly tuning up while someone soundchecks the microphones."[1]
