Best Bet Met
Posted by Cindy on January 5th, 2007
Here’s another little sampler from one of my parting gifts upon leaving the George Gimarc interview. The Met used to be my favorite-est read way way way back in the wee early 90′s. It’s certainly the place my adoration for Tim Rogers turned from a simple crush to full-out obsession. This little offering is from a compilation CD George put together, entitled The Met – Winter ’94. Enjoy…
1. Ronnie Dawson – “Up Jumped the Devil”
Ronnie Dawson, Jim Sutton, Billy Swartz, Tjarko
2. Funland – “Garage Sale”
Peter Schmidt, Clark , Will Johnson
3. Bobgoblin – “Nine”
Hop Manski / Hech MaHech / Lech Voyner (these are the names listed on the liner notes)
Hop Litzwire / Jason Weisenburg / Tony Jannotta / Rob Avsharian – (a friendly reader adds this list)
4. Hagfish – “Buster”
George Reagan / Zach Blair / Donivan Blair / Tony Barsotti
5. Lithium Xmas – “Hip Death Goddess”

6. Baboon – “Sucker”

george told me he was using “juliet”, but then used “you act so tough” instead. i asked him why they didn’t use the song we agreed upon and he said patrick and the other dude with the met liked this one better. go figure.

Colin I love everything you’ve ever put out, but I have to admit “Juliet” is my all-time favorite.
