Reviews Of Inner-City Scream:
"Between George Brigman's quiet genius and Fortune Teller's monumental Inner-City Scream LP from 1978, 70's Baltimore seemed like a serious place to be. John Waters may have to fork over his throne as Maryland's King of the Wasteland."
"Here's a Maryland mystery that was long believed to be a 60s garage LP, due to a "1968" copyright year on the cover, and music inside that seemed to confirm this date. The incongruous band photo pointed towards a much later era, and "1978" is usually accepted as the actual release year today. This background indicates the timeless nature of Fortune Teller's music, which is stripped down basement rock, completely devoid of any hippie dreams or rock star postures. Like George Brigman's classic "Jungle rot" album from the same time and place, a sense of urban despair and working class in survival-mode persists, and again like Brigman, "Inner City Scream" could be claimed by both garage, hard-rock and 70s punk fans. There's even a dose of dynamite 60s acid-punk on "Looking glass world". Lost-in-time albums from the mid-1970s are seeing plenty of interest currently, and within that non-genre Fortune Teller offers a unique and stark glimpse of an unglamorous Baltimore reality. In line with its overall nature, the "Inner City Scream" production quality is low-budget to the extreme."

"I bought this from a record dealer here in Europe some years back.
Prior to that, I had a CD-R copy of the album. I first learned of
"Inner City Scream" back in the 1990s."
