Song Of the Day: June 14, 2005
Casey wants to know "Would Chuck Warner put this on Teenline or Homework?" I remember seeing an article in Matter (still my all-time fave 'zine) about this obscure outfit back in the mid-80s, but the recorded output is scant, and a search of the internet reveals little. What we do know is that the mastermind appears to have been one Tony Kola, who was from Chicago.

If you are one who digs through Salvation Army-type record bins, you will no doubt remember seeing this cover before. It's taken from the Reiner recording of "The Nutcracker" on Living Stereo. (with and without the shaded dog) This recording was made by a band from Chicago as well. A really big band. Not Big Black.
Yeah, Matter Magazine! Great design, great articles. (including some from the dude from that not so big Chicago band, Big Black.) I remember reading about Alex Chilton for the first time in Matter. He was quoted there as saying, "I wouldn't piss in a journalist's mouth if it was on fire."

Thanks for remembering me. There were other releases (3 total) that decade.
