The first puffy taco I ever had was in Des Moines
Avatar 1:38pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

It's not politically correct - & no one says it is. There's no hate here. It's vintage - & as dumb as any other of the tracks.
It's also complex - the question of AmerIndian influence in & on the RawkaRollas being an interesting one. Reference the movie Rumble about it - & you should deffo see it - centered largely around Link Wray - honored on this very playlist.
I am however also white - & what does or doesn't offend me is largely beside the point.
