Fanatic! I hope you had a great week. I’ve been at the desk working away on things and trying to get in as much listening as possible. I checked out the new Memo PST album, really great.

I checked out the first Fake Fruit album, which I hadn’t played in awhile. They have a new one coming out later this year I’m looking forward to hearing. I got my first listen to TV Smith’s new album Handwriting. I think it’s my favorite of his solo stuff so far. It’s great. I’ve played the new Bed Maker album once so far. Really great.

The Adverts Rehearsal Tape 12” is here!
https://intheredrecords.com/collections/store/products/the-adverts-rehearsal-tape
Larry Hardy of In The Red Records and I are extra stoked about this record. You might have seen bootlegs of the Adverts practice tape and sadly, you might have heard the low-fi wrong speed, missing a song bootlegs that have been in circulation. I was able to get the tape the Adverts sent to Chiswick Records in search of a record deal. It sounded much better than the bootlegs. I asked TV Smith if Larry and I could put it out. He said yes. Ian MacKaye and I transferred the tape at Tonal Park in Takoma, MD. We sent the tracks to Mikey Young for mastering. The record came out sounding great and it’s a true bit of Punk Rock history by one of the great bands of the genre. In a perfect rookie error made by two old men who should know better, the two columns of the liner notes on the inner sleeve are reversed so you have to read the right column first. Sorry! Anyway, the record is really cool and it’s available right now. We didn’t make many so you might want to move on it sooner than later.
