Currently travelling in rural NZ so have been away from the internet - will see if I can download onto my phone tonight.

Seeing clemenza get into the Clean does my heart good this Tues morning. Although I p much love every track on Compilation/Anthology Disc 1 I must admit that PTTSE is my favourite too, along w Getting Older & the live At the Bottom, which is the surf guitar/mutant disco mashup of my Michigan dreams

My favorite blog posted a nice rare tape recently. Note he is good about not posting and/or taking down links to commercially available music so worry not:

Hey, thanks again for sending that, Evan.
One of the nice things about the Clean's early stuff here is that so many Kiwi bands throw out a cover every now and then - here's surf band Planet of the Tapes with "Fish" on the second side of this 7" (~2:59 or so on this video):

& here's an excerpt of Wellness doing a short and sweet dual-vocal take on "Point That Thing Somewhere Else" (nice to have a poppier cover as there's so many extended jams on it out there):
Last night was the first time I had seen Wellness play. I was hooked from their opening song. A cover of Point That Thing Somewhere Else by The Clean. Great band. pic.twitter.com/s2N5eR3d63— Paula (@paula_j_k) April 1, 2023
