That live radio performance was released by a label called Olwyn Plant on a limited CDR called "Follow Us Into the Forest," officially under the name Yuma Nora. Rick and Jackie for Smegma were guesting, and their influence on the performance is definitely felt. (For other Yuma Nora stuff, I highly recommend their "Jewels in the Snakepit" CD from 2005 on Not Not Fun.)

no fucking way! thanks alot for telling me this.
i mentioned my desire to release this on my little label to amy of yuma nora right after i heard it when i was just starting up (guess i still am though right?) but i was kinda out of the loop and totally disconnected from the world for about a year so it never happened, glad to see someone else has picked it up and probaly did a better job than i could have done with it.
been meaning to get the LAFMS box set, RRR also has a sampler CD with some material from the set that i may get first. RRRecords still has both the box set and the single CD availabe at
www.rrrecords.com.
ive seen that resipiscent disc too, been meaning to get it but its sorta expensive, or atleast to me... i hate paying more than 10 bucks for anything.
i might have that dr. octopuss lp, im not really sure. angie who is in dr. octopuss (also in caroliner, sharkiface and a bunch of other bay area crap) gave me a test pressing of some LP and it has zero information on it. all i know is she is on it and bran(...)pos is on it. i think its something similar, maybe with dr. octopuss on it but not that "dr. octopuss" lp? i dont know, those dudes have so many side projects.
when i was listening to the radio broadcast on kboo, they called it a smegma/yuma nora collab but whatev. still gotta get that, rick and jackie seem to be the most active in the music "scene" these days. i have some aquantinces in pdx who are pretty good friends with jackie.
another band you dudes should check out are the hellcows, they are similar and have a 7" w/ smegma and maybe some other stuff togather. my friends first show what the butthole surfers, smegma and the hellcows... i mean jesus christ, i cant think of anything better than that. i dont know if they are from portland or not, defiantly pacific northwest though and im pretty sure in oregon.
jackie was on the cover of wire a few months ago, meaning to pick up that issue but wire is defiantly hard to come by here in the states and expensive if you do. maybe you can order backissues from the site?
anyways, this is one of my favorite threads. easily the best in awhile.
