The Happy Eggs - Rippy - 1981
from the S/T ep

Charlotte's Happy Eggs had always been a bit of an enigma for me. I remember reading about them in Rock and Biscuits but I had no idea who they were. It wasn't until I made fast-friends with Jamie Hoover (Spongetones) that I finally learned who they were. Then it took nearly two years of begging (and also the start of this web site) to finally coax a copy from Jamie. Like the Village Pistols, this e.p. goes for big bucks on the internet these day so Jamie thank you very much. Judge for yourself, but I think it was worth the wait. Anyone out there remember any shows by these guys. It must have been an experience.


Band Members:
Jamie Hoover - Guitar
Gil Ray - Drums
Murphy Moore - Lead Vocals, Keyboards
Kenny Phillips - Bass
