Boris
The untitled 1975 demo LP, named for its first track and cover art.
Yezda Urfa, 1975
The record carries no title and is known as Boris after its first track, "Boris and His Three Verses". Tippins wrote most of the tracks, and Kimbrough contributed to "3, Almost 4, 6 Yea" and much of the production. It was pressed at A and R Records in Dallas. The Noble Records retail listing gives side one as the 10:51 title piece, "Texas Armadillo" (1:51) and "3, Almost 4, 6 Yea" (8:49), and side two as "Tuta in the Moya" (10:56) and "Three Tons of Fresh Thyroid Glands" (10:21). Sputnik Music's reviewer scored it 4.5 and called it one of the best US prog albums.
