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.

BRILLIANT CONCERT NUMBERS

When all this madness began in 1994, one of the people we wanted most to work with was Eric Gaffney. The guy contributed some of the wildest/weirdest tunes to the Sebadoh catalog, and helped warp our minds. Fast forward a few years and we track him down and managed to put this CD out. It was our first "real" CD in a case with printed insert and shrink wrap. We sold almost all of them, but did get about two dozen back from a distributor. The cases are damaged, but the music is still awesome. If you want one we can keep it as is or put it in a new case for you. Your choice. $10 each.

"...fans of early Sebadoh, where Gaffney's Hyde was the perfect foil to Barlow's Jekyll, will no doubt find much to admire in this collection, and there are indeed a number of lo-fi gems here." - Reviewed by Mark Thompson, www.lostatsea.net

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!

DUST COLLECTION AGENCY

Witt was one of atlanta's great artists, who left an incomparable stamp on everyone he knew before passing in 2000. Many friends and relatives helped put this astounding comp together that only begins to cover his remarkable range. Noise and ambient explosives punctuated with pop marvels and punk rambles. With solo jazz peices, a Smoke-esque track and a computer playable movie. Treat yourself.

"Some is pretty and some is creepy and some is just straight up weird. Highly recommended." -Katie P, KZSU

"8.5 out of 12" - Adam Strohm, Fakejazz.com

FAIRMOORE

MAN, is this a great cd - as adorable as the drawings of a newborn child. We can hardly believe we put it out! Jad Fair is pretty well known for his career writing and singing catchy songs of adoration and mayhem with Half Japanese and 6,000 other units. R. Stevie Moore should be well known, especially now that everyone out of California seems to reference his fidelity style, but also because he's released something akin to 6,000 albums. Seriously. Kinda. But don't take our word for it:

"Utterly poppy and slightly twisted at the same time...the best album Fair has been involved with since the heyday of Half Japanese." Stewart Mason, AMG

"Worthwhile for the adventurous (Rating: 5 - excellent)" - Babysue

"a wild and wooly ride of childish humor and wacky home-recorded pop. (4) (out of 5)" - Tom Schulte, Outsight

"A lovely, heartfelt effort that shows both in top form." - Dave Mandl, The Brooklyn Rail
