News from MO
Not sure how many of yins check the Scat Records website for updates on a regular basis, and I don't think most of the hip media outlets have gotten wind of this yet, so I figured I'd point you in the direction of some good news from the label.
As of this week, Bill Fox, perhaps the best songwriter in Cle rock history, has agreed to let Scat reissue his two solo albums from the 90's. According to R.G.:
I spoke with Bill Fox yesterday, and we have agreed to reissue his two mid-90s solo albums, Shelter from the Smoke & Transit Byzantium. If you've been trying to get copies of either of these I know you wallet just sighed with relief. Even better, we'll be issuing both on vinyl (a first) as well as cd. I hope to have at least one of them out by the end of the year.
While this sounds like a straight reissue, with no extra material, it's still awesome news (especially the part about the vinyl). Will this pave the way for the issue of some of those legendary lost Fox recordings? Probably not, but we'll take what we can get I guess.
Also, it looks like Prisonshake's new record, Dirty Moons, is set for a July 29 release date. Scat has the one sheet and track list up now. You know I'm totally psyched for this one, and judging off the songs I've heard, it's gonna live up to expectations.
