And I think they finally re-issued The Whip album that came out, if you ever got into them. (Joe Preston, and Scott & Jared from KARP. Scott died after they recorded a few things, so there isn't much... but it's all great!

When these shows were made, they were recorded and distributed via transcription discs. These discs came in a variety of lengths and kinds. I've seen some that have 30 minutes on a side. I've seen others that have 15 minutes - or less - on a side. Often, transcription discs were just stacked - without sleeves - in the corner of a radio station, and often forgotten about for years. (And some discs had much worse fates.) Fans and nerds would collect them, when stations would like to get rid of them. Many transcription discs were filthy, or had damage, or just wouldn't play. For a long time, discs that didn't sound great didn't get a lot of distribution, when tape traders started putting their discs on cassette for others to listen to, or possibly play on the radio. The Internet era has really allowed shows that were damaged, or sounded worse, to get distribution. Hopefully some of my clean-up efforts will give some of these "noisy" episodes another opportunity to be enjoyed.
