HEDWIG GORSKI - "Polish Gypsy With Ghost" (1992)

This is a very cool four song 7" EP I got from the phenomenal Hedwig Gorski back in the early 90's. In a real world, one of these songs should have been a hit 1992. Thirty years later, maybe there's still a chance. It was called "Polish Gypsy With Ghost" and Hedwig's band was called East Of Eden Band. The members of East Of Eden Band were percussionist Booka Michel, Guitarist D'Jalma Matthew Garnier III, and Bass player Horatio Rodriguez. These guys cook and give Hedwig the perfect background to tell you her stories.
Lucky me, my copy is numbered 1/200.

Hedwig Gorski's detailed story can be found on Wikipedia.
