Glenn Branca makes another appearance
on Tellus number 10 compilation tape called “All Guitars” from
1985. As you may guess, it features no end of Guitar abuse,displaying
the endless versatility of this wonderful tool. Plenty of Sonic Youth
members inhabit this area ,also occupied by No Wave legends Arto
Lindsey with his stratchy, scrape-y guitar stylee,and Lydia Lunch
trys her best to mimic a DNA solo, when she would have been better to
stick to her unique slide approach.Nirvana producer ,Steve Albini,
does a bit of pre-Rapeman shock rock,mentioning Niggers and
Fags,while playing some funky noise rock.Joseph Nechvatal makes his
obligatory appearance,amongst much,much, more guitar jiggery-pokery
that would empty any matinee performance of Cats on Broadway in five
seconds. Leaving several bouffanted out of towners trampled to death
in the aisles in the blind panic to escape the danger of having to
use their brains;long pickled by I Love Lucy Re-runs and endless
tours of the mid-west by Paul Macartney's Wings. Not for fans of Eric
Clapton.

I really enjoyed (most) of this one. I think 'Bad Hospital' and that "baby" tune are the stand-out tracks.

Thanks for posting, I did not previously know about this.
Thanks for this Tellus tape, Jonny Zchivago - brilliant! :)
Cheers lucky, happy new year.
You put this up years ago, and it's still here. Wonderful. I remember seeing ads for it in old copies of Option, but I never thought about tracking it down.
Thanks for this. I was searching for the Steve Albini 'Pray..'track and got a great compilation bonus!
Yeah we need more songs like that by groups named like that to save us from ourselves...or at least being cancelled.
