Buddy Max

About the artist

In a genre full of colorful characters, Buddy Max is certainly not the most famous, but might be the most weird. Collectors of oddball, self-produced recordings have held a longtime devotion to Max's song "The Birthmark Story," which, at nearly eight minutes, is longer than "McArthur Park" and has much better lyrics, namely a blow-by-blow description of a GI having a birthmark removed by a bloodthirsty Korean surgeon. Dwelling on this song would give a false impression of what Max is all about, however.
