OGX

Hard to believe we put this together five years ago already. Time flies when you throw your alarm clock out the window. Anyway, this 2LP set features tracks that people sent us to consider releasing over the course of our first decade as Old Gold. It also includes live tracks recorded around Atlanta, some alternate versions of songs we did release, and other oddities we honestly meant to put out earlier. There are 210 copies of the comp, and the first 110 came with handmade gatefold jackets and painted/collaged centefolds as well as a booklet documenting Old Gold's first 10 years and discography up to that point. Needless to say it was a bitch to put together, so for the final 100 copies, we're jamming both LPs into one jacket and giving you the track listing - no booklet, no gatefolds. Sorry but that's the way the cookie crumbles. However, it is cheaper now - $12 per copy. Impossible to find a better comp for less out there. We dare you, asshole.

Oh yeah, OGX includes sounds from: Jad Fair & R. Stevie Moore, Charlie Parker, Petland Toy Faktory, Bad Poet, Cheryle Leonard, David Daniell, Eyeball Hurt & The Medicine, Tom Heasley, Morgan Guberman, 2 Geniuses, Zandosis, How to Kick Yourself, Earzumba, The Buford Highway, Bon Vivants, More, Yximalloo, Eugene Chadbourne & Davey Williams, Gold Sparkle Band, and others I'm forgetting right now.
