Hanni El Khatib: Human Fly Vinyl 8″

Hanni El Khatib kicks off Innovative Leisure’s Limited Edition 8″ Series with a cover of the Cramps’ “Human Fly.” Where in the past, with covers of songs like “Heartbreak Hotel” and Funkadelic’s “I Got A Thing,” he’s strayed far from the originals, Khatib remains fairly faithful here. However, he turns the fuzz box up on this version and does away with the Cramps’ reverb-laden surf rock. On the flip is the previously unavailable exclusivo “Roach Cock.” Apparently he sees yours.
