Have I ever used the word “killer” to let you know how great a song is? Or that it “destroys”? Both these superlatives can be applied to describe White Stains by The Molls. That end when it gets really chaotic and it sounds like a schizo saxophone enters the song makes me want to yell: Hell yeah! Is Chesty Dead? is not as hooky and direct but still a great and creepy song. Peter Prescott who would later turn up in Mission Of Burma do the drums. Dosen’t seem like he was a regular member cause his name is not in bold on the back as the others.
Just built me a new PC so I’ll try out a new format for the mp3s. They’re now recorded in 24 bit and exported in 256kbps. Any difference sound wise? Let me know pllleeeasee.

White Stains fucking SLAYS. The ending part is a jaw dropper. Sometimes, certain KBD B-sides grow on me over time but I can say that in 10+ years the song “Is Chesty Dead” has never grown on me. I think it’s a letdown compared to such a monster like “White Stains”. But it may have been hard for any B-side to measure up to such a killer A-side. FYI- Chesty Morgan was this 70′s novelty who appeared in some exploitation films that highlighed her large “assets”.
One more thing- I think the song “White Stains” was inspired by a book of the same name from the 1940′s by Anais Nin. Anais Nin was one of the characters in the 1990 movie “Henry and June”…
yepp, the anais nin thing (no pun intended) came onto my mind too. horrible writer.
but what a KILLER a-side. imagine they had a full lp of this quality. you’d go insane playing it thru. doesn’t get better than this!
Thanks for the info Tony. Just what I expected from you.
thanks a lot fopr this one.i am from boston and saw em many times in the 1970′s.
this record is really hard to find and i am looking forward to hearing it again.
“Chesty Morgan was this 70’s novelty who appeared in some exploitation films that highlighed her large “assets”.”
Assets? Those things were HIDEOUS. They had creases in them and giant purple spider veins.
Not to mention that Chesty had a face like a fossilized dishrag.
And to those not “in the know”, Double Agent 73 (as in 73 inches) is about Chesty doing, well stuff (killing a guy by stuffing icecubes down his throat, beating people to death with her breasts) while having a time bomb implanted in one breast and camera in the other.
This song does arise some questions though; what ever DID happen to Chesty? What happened to all these cinematic sexual deformities of the 70s/80s?
The hump-backed midget in Salon Kitty? The Boston Batwanger? Long Jean Silver (penetrated other women with her phallic shaped leg stump)?
We all know that Long DONG Silver was a hoax and that the guy who came up with the whole scam came onto television with the (now shriveled) latex sex organs (which were stored in a cardboard box) used to fake the photographs and videos of long Dong; but where did the other REAl sex freaks go?
I want to know.
AND DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I CAN GET AN ILSA SHE WOLF OF THE SS T-SHIRT?
“Just what I expected from you”- LOL! Milky- I’ve never actually seen any of the Chesty Morgan movies but after your description I think I’ll avoid them altogether. Regarding finding the Ilsa T-shirt, what really happened to Chesty and all of your other inquiries- that is what Google is for! You can probably have your answers in mere seconds. By the way, that Ilsa movie is probably one of the trashiest films I’ve ever seen. Damn!
Nope, I’ve googled. I’ve even googled the usenet.
There are plenty of other people asking the same questions, deep questions that they are; they cannot be answered.
All I can find out about an Ilsa shirt is that they were a dime a dozen in NY in the early 80s.
I did find a place in England that has a Love Camp 7 t-shirt, and another place that has an Ilsa Harem Keeper of he Oil Sheiks t-shirt, but no She Wolf of The SS shirt.
Hi, I co-wrote White Stains…actually wrote the whole thing, then Bill Koff rewrote some of the lyrics. That’s his electric bassoon at the end that you hear (not a sax). It’s the Molls only record, though they did record a lot of their live shows, and there was a planned live album recorded at the Rat (and was going to be released by the club’s record label), but it never came off. I also did the Molls Head artwork (Tris, the bass player took the picture of Chesty Morgan, whom he had interviewed years before).
Glad you guys like it! I’m going to be re-recording it soon for a film…but I’ll let you know when and where as time goes on.
TD
PS: NOT inspired by Anais Nin.
PPS: The record is still in copyright.
Ive been looking for an Ilsa shewolf t-shirt too and all ive found is the haremkeeper version
I suppose you could try and make one yourself?
I need this shirt 2 but they are not for sale no more….
hey td,
whay are the lyrics to white stains? my band plays it during practice and would like to cover it sometime live. love the song!
Hi Stiff…can I can where you got ahold of the tune? Who you are, and where you’re from? Just curious.
Meant to say, can I AKK where you got ahold of the tune.
Am I out of my mind…can I ASK! Geez.
Hey twisted…co wrote it with you…definetly not Anais…where are you …love to talk
I used to be in purgatory…but now I’m in hell. By the way, all you readers, Bill Koff was the front and light of The Molls. When he left, the band was never the same. He was the center of gravity for those few short years when the Molls raged around Boston.
god what id do to hear a live molls show
nice! i’ve been looking for this for a while
Hi, here’s a site where you can buy T-shirts and stuff with the Molls head artwork that I did years ago.

I’ve got a handful of (original unplayed) vinyl) 45′s of White Stains. I’m one of the co-writers. Let me know if you are interested, AND tell me a price you are willing to play. Thanks. T.
i am completely interested. goddamn i wish i read this a year ago.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR UPLOADING THIS MASTERPIECE!!! WHITE STAINS!!!
No doubt the single ::shreds:: and MANY thanks for posting it!!! It was well-recognized (at the time) for also containing Tristram Lozaw and his contributions to the local “Boston Rock” magazine….
