Bunnydrums - Feathers Web (Funk Dungeon Music INC. 1983, Philadelphia)






this record had never been played before this recording. it's been in our library for at least 20 years without being played once. and I was so excited to find it!
Bunnydrums is a great gothy new wave synth band from Philadelphia.

Alex Chilton - High Priest (Big Time Records 1987)






Say nothing bad about Alex Chilton. I was expecting too much when I started ripping this record, then it was fascinating and, well, I had already started. This album is ridiculous.

most ridiculous: thing for you "i've got a thiiiing for you, SEXual, thing for you, intellectual, yeah you, i've got a thing for you."

I don't know enough about Alex Chilton outside of Big Star to start criticizing. this album just struck me as goofy at times.

1 - take it off
2 - let me get close to you
3 - dalai lama
4 - volare
5 - thing for you
6 - forbidden love
side b
7 - make a little love
8 - trouble don't last
9 - don't be a drag
10 - nobody's fool
11 - come by here
12 - raunchy
