This zine disc sold on it's own for ten bucks.  I could have sworn the physical book was stashed in a  pile deep deep in storage, but with the disc underpriced there was no way I was going to hunt an hour or two through buried plastic tubs of books for the off chance it might be there and be rewarded by an extra 10+ shipping cost to Germany.

This is a representative comp of the avant indie underground circa late 90's.  Hitmakers like The Tower Recordings, Windy & Carl, Juneau and Simon Joyner with The Azuza Plane join the Spiny Anteaters with Ralph Records veteran Nash The Slash for a compilation finale. I particularly enjoyed the 3 part suite by Alger Hiss's Jordan Mamone with A. Justin Chemo from Turing Machine and Pitchblende.

A good headphone listen.

Bob's public precursor to his own divorce has taken a strange turn in the public narrative over the years, whether reflecting domestic tranquility or turbulence.   Beyonc é  might tell you she flips pancakes or boils an egg to Blood On The Tracks on a Sunday morning.  Jakob Dylan might rail that these lyri
