Weltschmerzen  – Private Press LP
Circus Magazine review: “The People’s Victory Orchestra and Chorus is a collection of 150 people who have created two albums…but would like to remain nameless due to their distrusts and distaste for the more commercial and egotistical aspects of the recording business….”Weltschmerzen” is a complicated musical collage drieved naturally from a musical perspective unique in 1967. Among others who shared a similar perpective in their approach to music at the time were Randy Newman, Van Dyke Parks, The Beach Boys in Smiley Smile, and Judy Collins in In My Life…”

Rockaway Beach
from The Village Voice: “…As such they are one of a very few genuine ‘underground’ recording groups in America. They are a working group that has recorded two albums…and now, this single. ‘Oh Happy Birthday’ is an elaborate, tongue-in-cheek production number reminiscent of the Stones on ‘Something Happened To Me’ of the Beatles, circa their ‘Magical Mystery Tour’ days. It features cascading harpsichords, violin, flute, trombone, trumpet, a heavenly chorus of seraphim…a tuba, drums, whistles, fireworks, a squawking duck-sound and exploding cannon. ..”
