Seriously? How much of this shit is there?

So yeah, there's even more.

The Disparate Cogscienti (1988)

It's a compilation. It's on Cog Sinister, the label started by Mark E Smith in the latter portion of the 80's to ostensibly handle Fall releases both new and reissue. I would suppose a bit more flush with cash following some minor success this afforded him a bit more control over his own stuff. But he also took the time to work with and release a handful of items by other folks he deemed worthy of his attentions.

Amongst those was this compilation of various artists some whose association with the Fall date all the way back to the Manchester Musicians Collective and the earliest days of their existence like John the Postman (who was an actual mail carrier)

I can't really get into the musical genealogy of this stuff. I just know that Mark E. had pretty decent taste as far as this goes. Very little as far as chaff goes here and an interesting window into the local scene a couple of steps down from one orbiting the more well known Manchester area bands (ie. Buzzcocks or Joy Division)

But of some interest here is that there's an uncredited 18 second bit of what can only be the Fall that opens the second side of this Lp. It sounds essentially like a snippet of Mark E Smith doing a bit of spoken word over a short segment of "Tempo House". Also of note is that Philip Johnson's "One Forty Three" would appear to be a bit of extremely slowed down tape manipulation of "Repetition"

The End?

[Ed. 10/16/17 - Hey there Fall fans,

I see that the Fall Forums have finally found this little corner of the internet, (but for some reason it's taking forever to get validated by the mods to post anything there.) I want to point you all to a series of other posts from last autumn for more Fall stuff. It's all the singles, Eps and various rarities that I have. Not complete by any stretch, but fairly comprehensive.
The Fall of the Fall started 9/22/17 and ran to 12/21/17.
I'll also gladly take it all down if asked by MES or his representatives. There's just too much great stuff not to share with people who will enjoy it.

Otherwise, poke around at some of the other stuff on here. Quite a few things that one may find appealing or at least interesting.

Thanks for your patronage]
