The Inexplicable Still Unexplained

Got another large package of compact discs in the mail today plus a couple of records for good measure. I'm ripping those in another couple of windows.
Some of that shit might end up here in a year or two. Or not. I don't know anymore.


Meanwhile I'm going to queue up a few posts since I'm sitting here anyway.

Cannibal (1993)

Job's Daughters is a side project from Brendan Kearney of Thinking Fellers Union Local 282 abetted by Greg Freeman and others.
I read a while back on a link I can't relocate that the A side is an Ennio Moriccone track from the soundtrack to low budget Italian film "I Cannibal" The B side was from some odd Asian record of unknown origin, but a lovely song nonetheless.

That's about all I got.
I have some Duke Ellington shit to tag in another window...

Beat the Dog (1985)

A random flexi I acquired many years ago for the above noted fifty cents by Jesus Couldn't Drum. It is unfortunately afflicted with on nasty noisy blurt in the title track (such is the woe of cheap flexis), but is otherwise so wonderfully catchy that I decided to post it anyway.

I want to also go on record as not condoning actual animal cruelty and would like to assume that Jesus Couldn't Drum didn't either.

I'd kind of forgotten about this until it came up in the record box. Now I have the Jesus Couldn't Drum discography in my wantlist.

That is all.

Analog Drum Machines Keep Perfect Time.

I started this post and I intend to finish it.

What's Your Name (1983)

Bruce Loose from everybody's favorite band ever, Flipper, takes a solo turn.
I've carted this fucker around for nearly 4 decades.
I'm even including scans of the insert.
That's all that need be said.

Pip Pop (1980)

Louder Animal Group. I've been on the lookout for an upgrade copy since I pulled this out of a close out bin for the princely sum of a dollar in the middle of the 80's some time.
I just haven't come across one.

Not That One, A Totally Different One Again

Yeah, another band that named themselves after a famous person which while less confusing than the band that called themselves Courtney Love there's still plenty of room for confusion.

Bug (2000)


And so it was that at the start of this century two people decided to name their musical project Harper Lee. And here is a couple of examples of what they sounded like which is something that a decade earlier would have found a home on Sarah Records.

Dry Land (2000)

If you have an interest in the people involved here's an interview with Keris Howard and Laura Bridge  which may or may not illuminate things for you. Sometimes interviews do that. Sometimes they just muddy the mental waters.

Otherwise just lay in your bed and relive a little bit of that long lost adolescent love that adulthood has beaten into a nostalgic haze. Then afterward you can do some laundry.
