LA LUBA MIA

Released in 2004, this is the last More collection to see the light of day. We think La Luba Mia means "my she wolf" in Spanish. But it might not. This one is subtitled "an old gold kind of punishment," though there's not much on here that fits the usual M.O. of More (that being atonal assault). Instead, this cdr collects snippets captured on tape recorders and four-tracks in basements, farm houses, bedrooms and a burrito restaurant. Some real beauty on display from time to time, abstraction shines through on a few short cuts, and there are three actual songs including the first version of "Carson Jones," a sweet version of "Dial Tone" (check the audio sample here), and a Fugs cover. Not only that, but this release has the greatest photo ever taken on its cover (courtesy of Matt Miller's found photo collection). 15 tracks, probably 50 or 60 minutes long, and $5 each. Damn!
