The Jazz Butcher

The Jazz Butcher

The Jazz Butcher, also known as The Jazz Butcher Conspiracy and The Jazz Butcher And His Sikkorskis From Hell, is a blackly humorous and (until the early nineties) prolific British musical group founded by Pat Fish, a philosophy graduate from OxfordFact|date=April 2008. Their "oeuvre" boasts such topics as Thomas Pynchon's "The Crying of Lot 49," an unrequited crush on Shirley Maclaine, and an ode to SF writer Harlan Ellison. The song "Sister Death" is not about the comic book character, but was inspired by the last words of Saint Francis of Assisi, "Welcome, Sister Death."
