      It wouldn't be entirely off-base to call this sprawling opus the Sgt. Pepper of New York's vaguely-remembered scum-rock scene. With master producer Kramer at the controls, and performance artist-turned sitcom star Ann Magnuson on the mic, Bongwater provided massive sensory overload--not to mention a dizzying afterglow worthy of that name. Double Bummer is probably the fluid aggregation's finest moment, its stretches of self-indulgence tempered by the genuine enthusiasm evident in the experimenting. Wry highlights like the Led Zeppelin-inspired "Dazed & Chinese" and the laugh-out-loud "David Bowie Wants Ideas" share hangar space with an expansive array of covers that encompasses touchstones as varied as the Moody Blues, the Monkees, and Roky Erickson. This CD version incorporates the band's "Breaking No New Ground." --David Sprague
