nasals). While Eve was from Poland, the original Adam was eccentric Englishmen John Christian Dee. (Yep, the guy who wrote "Don't Bring Me Down" for The Pretties). On this 45 for the Teledisc label Mr Dee had left to produce The Rainbows or write wonderful songs like "The World Can Pack Their Bag And Go Away". Now Krautrock gourmets take note: both sides of this crazy record were written and produced by Dieter Dierks and we suspect the man to be the one who slipped inside Adam's costume on the occasion. The band that saves these two nuts were The Hush, but we were totally disappointed when we heard their record without Adam & Eve. Paradise lost...
