Our compilation spotlighting selections from our U.S. vanity and private-press LP collection has been pushed back again and again in order to work on the Marc Mundy and Luie Luie CDs, but we assure you, it is still on the way -- albeit in the slow lane.

The compilation (to be titled Musicolorama) will feature unique musical visions from middle America and beyond. Long-lost artists on this release will include Memphis, Tennessee's sorority lounge act, the Mam'Selles; Chicago, Illinois' balladeer, Manfred; Fremont, Ohio's space traveling family act, The Christian Astronauts; Chattanooga, Tennesee's self-trained harpist, Anne Lee Patton; Hutchinson, Minnesota's guitar-happy lounge act, Los Bandidos, and many others. More information, images, and mp3 excerpts forthcoming.
