Jim Shepard BLog

Toilet & Bowels · 02.11.2010, 03:24 PM

There's a new blog where some guy is uploading out of print Jim Shepard stuff every couple of days, and then takes it down after a week or two.

It's great

10,000 posts.

Nice one, thanks.

His cover of Leonard Cohen's ''Stranger Song'' is fantastic.

ahhhh this is awesome, been looking to complete the V-3 stuff for a while, thanks genteel!

I don't get why his music remains so unavailable? His son seems like such an idiot but surely someone must be able to take the reigns and make it all happen.

What's his son doing?

He keeps on talking about a series of reissues but so far the only one that came out is the live LP last year which wasn't even on the ''resurrected'' Iron Press label. He seems like a time waster but then again what do you expect from a Sportz Metal fan? He probably doesn't care about his father's legacy. As far as I know his family have been contacted by various labels before and found it difficult to deal with them.

I am looking for The Folk City Aztec Drama Series Volume One cassette. I know the mp3s are floating around, but I need the song One % of Nothing sourced from the actual cassette so it's in the lossless file format. Thanks. You can wetransfer the track to me using wetransfer. charles@cicirella.com

Have you tried asking that question on the Terminal Boredom forum?

Genteel Death · 01.02.2019, 09:17 AM

I just became aware of this recent release put together by Nudge Squidfish and Byron Coley. Sold Out.

Bummer, 99 copies seems pretty measly.

Genteel Death · 01.22.2019, 06:19 AM

There's a second pressing on sale.

Heavy Action 3x LP + bonus 12'' out on Ever/Never out on the 4th of October
When Charles and Josh tapped me to spill some ink for this project, I couldn’t say yes fast enough. Culled from Charles’s vast personal collection, the contents herein abide no formality and as such, ushers forth an insider’s take into Jim’s frantic, restless genius*you’ll not likely find again. Timelines? What are you, some kinda cop? It’s fresh ears all around on this one, folks, none of this material has seen the light of day till now. It twitches, it grunts, it flares, and it soars. It ain’t no one type’ve nothin’, unless that’s Loaded. In my king fu village, this pivotal document to the blood spilt across the floor of an iconoclastic career is right up there with the Velvets, Caught Between The Twisted Stars, Beefheart’s, Grow Fins & those Blorp Essette comps. Who knows if the official vaults will ever be*opened? And even if, what you’d likely get is the known entities anyway, trussed up in new boots ’n’ panties. This is mud fresh from the private swamp. And as you’ll soon find out, Jim could make it crackle.

- Tom Lax, Philadelphia, Pa 3/15/19, From the liner notes, "BRING ME THE MOUSTACHE OF BERNADINE DOHRN"*
