The "Spooky" EP by the Golden Hours is so done. Run of 100, there are about 20 left. Available at the Half and Half for $4, mail order from us for $6 ppd., or try Tomentosa (where they've got the very, very, very last copies of the "Mystery and Her Crew" EP, also).

WFMU's amazing Free Music Archive is up and running! Hours and hours of incredible audio in a format that's actually really nice! Joe Meek home recordings, a killer Sic Alps live set, obscure Grouper stuff, many out-of-print 7 inches. Rad!
