Vertical Slit
Slit & Pre-Slit (1977/2010)
"Slit And Pre-Slit was Jim Shepard’s first ever release, privately pressed in an edition of only 100 copies in 1977 and mostly given away to friends and musical/cultural heroes like Lester Bangs, Todd Rundgren, Lou Reed, David Bowie, Brian Eno, John Cale etc. Its extreme rarity has meant that few have had the chance to wrap their ears around it, but those in the know have consistently pronounced it Shepard’s best."
Volcanic Tongue
Victoria Vein And The Thunderpunks
Rear Guard Action / Other Things 7" (1974)
"Previously unissued May 1974 studio recordings by this Debris' precursor group finds Oliver, Chuck and company in a high energy glitter / R & B mode ala the New York Dolls." - Anopheles Records
Tommy Jay & Mike Rep
The Grim-O Comix Sequence (1974-75)
"The Grim-O Comix Sequence was a cycle of songs recorded over the course of the summer/fall after Tommy Jay and Mike Rep graduated from high school. It is intended to be some sort of never meant to be released folk rock opera, touching on all the concerns of the day - frustration of minimum wage work, unrequited love, insignificance, and hopelessness - which incredibly remained wholly unreleased and under tight lock and key for all of these years. Listening to these recordings, you can hear them experimenting with recording and songwriting techniques that would end up being staples of their respective musical identities... Like everything everybody does in high school, this recording isn't without its cringe-worthy moments, but it's great to hear the beginnings of two burgeoning songwriter/ producers with talents beyond their years." - Columbus Discount
Joint Effort
Two Sided Country... Blues (1971)
"This obscure acoustic garage acid folk masterpiece for the first time reissued on CD was originally recorded in 1971 (200 copies have been pressed). Joint Effort are from Detroit but don't deny the mystic and loner hippie Westcoast feeling. They recorded all songs at home, most of the tracks were first takes and reflect a kind of freaky The Beatles meeting Nirvana (Unplugged) jam session. They play tripped out raga-folk tunes with homemade effects, catchy vocals, very intense songwriting and Bob Dylan like protest against society. The songs stand perfectly for the summer, peace and love feeling!" - World In Sound
