MUNGO JERRY-YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE IN THE ARMY-1971-FIRST PRESS-UK-DAWN-DNLS-3028. A very rare British original of the cult band..The third album of the wonderful Mungo Jerry, on which they continue to be in the framework of a jagband band that is branded for them. I don't think that, in comparison with the first two, the material here sags much more often, in general, this record is designed absolutely in the same stylistic spirit: pipes and kazoos, washing boards, unpretentious jagband and blues motifs.
