I gave Albini his copies of Big Hits and Hard Attack when Big Black played No Bar in 1985. Steve was a big MX-80 fan.

Hey, I have vinyl in the attic (and all over the house), but it is a fully ventilated attic I just have too damn much stuff.

I remember playing the Ramones on the radio in 1980 every week. That always got the phone lines to light up with death threats from the good ol' boys if I didn't play some Seger. Memories...misty water colored memories. No, punk rock didn't change…

By and large, the kind of music discussed on this site isn't, and never was, played on the radio in Indiana. So what was your introduction to it? When and how did you first discover a musical underground?

How come I never saw a copy of this?

Wow! I got your message about the Safety Pups. That is awesome. My email is dereklotek@yahoo.com
Could you hit me up there and we can work out the snail mail details?
I know it seems silly, but I can't believe after 19 years I will be able to hear them again! I have been bummed about having them stolen for that long. :(

Hey Jeff I got the tapes. I really appreciate it.

When I get my hands on the new Repellents record you'll be the first to get one!

Thanks again.

Primates did go in the studio. We did one session with the Ricky, Rapper, Lumpy, Dave Yukki line-up.

I don't have a copy of that, but I remember being a little disappointed with the outcome (personally). I was pretty studio-green, and didn't play very well, or adjust my drums properly.

I do have a copy of one of our No Bar shows that's pretty fuckin' sweet.

Hey: I am a huge fan of the Fall as well, especially the time period you mentioned over on John's cassette blog. If someone told me I could only listen to one band for th rest of my life, I would have to choose the Fall. They are the band that keeps on giving.

Have you heard the live in Reykjavik set from 1983? Brilliant.

Also, Mark E. Smith's biography is seriously entertaining. Unfortunately, at least for now, it's UK only and a bit on the pricey side. Still worth it though.

We did "Dirt is bad" in the Primates

David Schlabach said…By the time the Primates went to the studio, we had changed our name to the Ripped vorpals ( because Terry Hollywood joined the band) Since that line up only lasted a very short time before Repellents ll commenced, and all the songs from that studio session were later done by the Repellents ll, I just refer to all the stuff from that period as " Repellents".
I have just finished transferring all those old tapes to mp3.
But the old Primates stuff ......nada...never went to studio.

Jeff, thanks for the Grit, I am just now listening to the stuff from '89. Very, dare I say Trower-esque, or is that Travers-esque. I am digitizing it this weekend and will send the studio stuff asap.

Thanks, There are three songs on there I didn't have copies of, thought it was just one. Oh my, Once again, thank you very much.

If you could be so kind as to send me that Primates tape, I will gladly give you an Album.

interesting. Now if you could actually hit a button and somewhere a large jukebox would find the album, put it on the turntable and stream it, that would be something!

Oh, and the records from my parent's collection that really launched me? Their collection of "original Broadway cast" musicals made me think about telling stories through music; Allan Sherman's "My Son the Nut" taught me that music can be both serio…

I’ve probably mentioned this before here at MFT, but the first time I really, REALLY wanted a particular recording and found out it was only available on CD...late July of ‘95...that was one of the saddest days of my life. Crushing. I’m not sure jus…

I need to write a blog totally marginalizing vinyl. I'll get to work on that ;) Seriously, good piece. I need to find my way back to vinyl - I need to convince my wife to let me set up the turntable in the living room again.

My family still had 78's and a record player that would play 'em when I grew up in the '50's. My father had big band, Beethoven, country, all kind of things. My mother worked at the RCA plant that made records in Indianapolis, when she left to have…
