Don Gere - Werewolves On Wheels - Finders Keepers - FKRO48CD

In 1988, Savage Pencil's superb compilation Angel Dust alerted collector nerds to hidden caches of Biker Movie Soundtrack albums, and battered copies of Satan's Sadists, The Wild Angels, and Hell's Angels on Wheels, bristling with gasoline surf guitars and hack psychedelic travelogue tunes, were swiftly snaffled.
The 1971 lycanthropy-biker flick Werewolves On Wheels lack an official soundtrack album, despite featuring future Steve Miller sidekick Don Gere, so Finders Keepers have assembled one.
Droning acid-rock ritual grooves are doused with tailpipe noise, between oddly sentimental country songs, and solemn satanic incantations. Expect the hypnotic title track to become a much sampled staple.
