Liner notes by Dr. Demento

Previously unavailable on digital platforms, and only available physically since 1966 — Napoleon XIV's (Jerry Samuels') debut album is being reissued on Needlejuice Records. The album contains the classic hit "They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-Haaa!" — one of the most well-known novelty hits of all time. The rest of the album is just as wild, and is one of the most experimental artistic works of the 1960s. Includes five extra bonus tracks, many of which showcase Jerry's pre-Napoleon early recordings.
