A short-lived trio starring Archie Moore from Velocity Girl on guitar and Pam Berry (from seemingly every other cool Washington D.C. indie band of the '90s) on vocals, Glo-Worm managed a brief run of simple acoustic singles that were eventually gathered on the compilation Glimmer. Unfortunately, the version of "Wishing Well" on Glimmer is a re-recording that buries the airy simplicity of the barely 90-second original in an onslaught of overdubbed guitar parts, at least one of which is wincingly out of tune. Humbug. There were lots of these neo-Young Marble Giants duos and trios in the mid-'90s, all releasing equally precious miniatures of a sort that you either love or hate. Personally, I almost always love them. My wife, on the other hand, tends to refer to them as "Stewart's wispy-little-girl-singers."
