Fanatic! Glad to be back with you for another show in September.
I put this section into last week’s USA notes, perhaps you might them useful.
Some Great Records To Make Note Of Dept.
Sonic’s Rendezvous Band - Detroit Tango: Splattered Records has released a limited 200 run of the 2LP compilation of Sonic’s Rendezvous Band music called Detroit Tango. The site has a great explanation as to its existence, so in the interest of making for a more perfect union between you and this excellent release, I will cut and paste from the site. Thanks, Reed!
Released and imported from Svart Records of Finland. When the first pressing of this killer slab sold out, I contacted my friend at Svart to inquire about getting a large quantity of the second batch for distribution within the US. We came up with the idea of doing an exclusive colored-vinyl version for Splattered Recs. So here you have it.
One of thee best official compilations of Sonic's Rendezvous Band material ever released. I describe it as a best of selection from the expensive 6-CD box set that Easy Action released years ago. This is one of thee greatest bands to ever exist and forever a Detroit staple.
Limited to 200 copies on sun yellow, translucent vinyl. All copies include an 18x24" foldout poster.
I’m listening to my copy as I write this. Hell, yes. This is great. Fred Smith!!!

This is a great band. Their new album, Pray For Party Dozen is super cool.

Bent Arcana and Osees albums on Castle Face: These records sell through quickly. I’ve heard them both and they’re so great.
============
Fuzz - Fuzz III: Another installment of the great trio featuring Ty Segall on drums and vocals, Chad Ubovich on bass and Charles Moothart on guitar. We’ll start rolling out tracks in November. I’ve had this one for months and had to keep my mouth shut. So glad it’s coming out. https://intheredrecords.com/products/fuzz-iii
