One of the albums (well, EPs?) was from an American tour in 1999, I think? Was that when the show was? Definitely late nineties with Timonium opening, great combination.

I should imbibe more of this; "Take Me Down to the Hotel Joanna" is always good shambling catharsis

Nice!

Listening to the s/t album and "Arty Barbecue", which is my favorite period. Such fun, winsome jangle pop. Really wish Captured Tracks or someone like them put together a comp of all their mid-90s singles and compilation contributions.
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Tuesday, 22 September 2020 03:26 (three years ago) link
Yeah I only love Cannanes more as the years go by.
― Evan, Tuesday, 22 September 2020 13:47 (three years ago) link
I'd extend that period from A Love Affair With Nature to the s/t I think
― CP Radio Gorgeous (Colonel Poo), Tuesday, 22 September 2020 13:53 (three years ago) link
I put together a compilation of all their singles and non-lp tracks from 1992-2000 (excepting the ones already on "Arty Barbecue"), email me at geraldmcbb (@t) h0tma!l d0t c0m for a link.

I've been dying to hear their cover of Don't Fear The Reaper on a split 7" from 2008 but it doesn't appear to be digitized anywhere accessible to at least sample.
― Evan, Saturday, 17 October 2020 16:12 (three years ago) link
Email me at the above address and I'll hook you up.
― Gerald McBoing-Boing, Saturday, 17 October 2020 16:49 (three years ago) link
