Jay Reatard
In honor of the expanded re-release of the soundtrack to the Jay Reatard doc Better Than Something that drops June 9th, we have a really rad live audience recording of Jay Reatard in Athens, GA and a rare live recording of The Reatards Live.

Music To Eat
Hampton Grease Band was Col. Bruce Hampton's first legendary band. They only released one album, Music To Eat, in 1971. Though the record was supposedly Columbia's second worst selling record ever, the record has since gained a cult following and is considered one of the great records of the early psychedelic rock era. The record contains dazzling guitar work, long weird compositions and meaningless lyrics read off of a spray paint can and an atlas. Music To Eat was a weird audio sculpture that had no context within the normative world other than that it was there.

Bonus
Live Improvisation 1970 (01:31:36)
On my wishlist are the two shows that Hampton Grease Band opened at The Fillmore East on June 5th and 6th for The Mothers of Invention. Zappa was recording the white pencil front live album and also john Lennon and Yoko jumped onstage during the encore without warning, all of which is on tape. I just wonder if there is a tape of Hampton Grease Band? There's gotta be right?
