Thrift Shop Tapes - 002 - Greg X. Volz

A study and critique of cassette tapes found in thrift shops.

• Have you ever been at a party and overheard someone saying, “Hey man, throw on some Greg X. Volz!” If so you’re at the wrong goddamn party.

• Nothing like album art devoid of every color except for a shitload of teal.

• There’s “No Room In the Middle” between the worst shit ever and mildly religious middle aged music.

• And yes, The X in Greg X. Volz stands for Xanax because that’s what you’ll need to treat your depression after listening to this album. I guess it’s sort of a concept album in a way then.

• Musically a cross between John Tesh doing The Gaither Gospel Hour and driving into a brick wall after working a double shift at Lee’s Hoagie House. Coincidentally this is probably where Greg X. Volz now works.

Tony Minute Would Shit To This - 001 - DEVO

Some people need just the right song to set the mood. I happen to have a keen ear for such an occurrence.

Devo - Midget

Thrift Shop Tapes - 001 - Sheriff

A study and critique of cassette tapes found in thrift shops.

• Mr. Big’s dim witted uncle

• Based on the clarity of the band photo I think we can safely assume the art director at XDR Records doesn’t know Quark.

• The audio clarity is also worth noting here. It must be that “expanded dynamic range” as advertising on the cover.

• Also known as REO Shitwagon.

• Bonus points to Sheriff for mixing up the rock poses / attitudes on the cover photo. (from left to right) The Bruiser, The Hard Rocking Good Time Bros #’s 1 and 2, Awkward Buddy and The Sensitive Type.
