  • Warner/Reprise Loss Leaders Booklet
    THE WARNER BROS. LOSS LEADERS SERIES (1969-1980) Depending On How You Count Them, 34 Essential Various Artist Collections From Another Time We figured it was about time to pull together all of the incredible Warner Bros. Loss Leaders releases dating back to 1969 (and even a little earlier). For those who lived through the era, Warner Bros. Records was winning the sales of an entire generation by signing and supporting some of music’s most uniquely groundbreaking recording artists… during music’s most uniquely groundbreak- ing time. With an appealingly irreverent style (“targeted youth marketing,” it would be called today), WB was making lifelong fans of the kids who entered into the label’s vast catalog of art- ists via the Loss Leaders series—advertised on inner sleeves & brochures, and offering generous selections priced at $1 per LP, $2 for doubles and $3 for their sole 3-LP release, Looney Tunes And Merrie Melodies. And that was including postage. Yes… those were the days, but back then there were very few ways, outside of cut-out bins or a five-finger discount, to score bulk music as cheaply. Warners unashamedly admitted that their inten- tions were to sell more records, by introducing listeners to music they weren’t hearing on their radios, or finding in many of their (still weakly distributed) record stores. And it seemed to work… because the series continued until 1980, and the program issued approximately 34 titles, by our questionable count (detailed in later posts). But, the oldsters among us all fondly remember the multi-paged, gatefold sleeves and inviting artwork/packaging that beckoned from the inner sleeves of our favorite albums, not to mention the assorted rarities, b-sides and oddities that dotted many of the releases.

The "blank generation" came out of a moral vacuum. While punks roamed the suburban landscape, blue-collar workers were feeling the pinch of an economic revolution: human society had left the industrial age and entered the post-industrial age, the age in which services (such as software) prevail over manufacturing. Computers now rule the world, from Wall Street to Boeing. The assembly line took away a bit of the personality of the worker, but that was nothing: the new service- based economy takes away the worker completely, physically. In the post-industrial society the individual is even less of a "person". The individual is merely a cog in a huge organism of interconnected parts that works at the beat of a gigantic network of computers. This highly sophisticated economy treats the individual as a number, as a statistic. The goal is no longer to create a robot that behaves like a human being, but to create a human being that behaves like a robot: robots are efficient and lead to manageable and profitable businesses, whereas humans are inefficient and difficult to manage.

  • Edgy Music Gives Akron Fringe Status Page 1 of 2
    Edgy music gives Akron fringe status Page 1 of 2 Posted on Thu, Jun. 10, 2004 Edgy music gives Akron fringe status By David Giffels When the body of Robert Quine was discovered last weekend in his New York City apartment, he became the first of a puzzling subgeneration of Akron-born artists to pass into the great beyond. At 61, he was the elder statesman of an absurdly brilliant bunch, all born roughly between 1945 and 1950, who collectively represent the city's most noteworthy contributions to art and pop culture. Most of their eventual obituaries will include the adjectives that apply to Quine: iconoclastic, adventurous and influential. In music, there are the Mothersbaugh and Casale brothers, who formed Devo and now make soundtracks and commercials. There is Tin Huey, which spewed out the solo career of horn player Ralph Carney and Chris Butler's band the Waitresses. There is Chrissie Hynde, a virtual lock for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In film, there's Jim Jarmusch, the grittily independent director, beloved by critics, the darling of Cannes and Sundance, forever flirting at the edges of the mainstream. In comics, there's Paul Mavrides, co-author of the underground Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, and yet another whose influence is more notable than his popular success. In literature, there's Rita Dove, the Pulitzer Prize winner and two-time U.S. poet laureate, whose more refined tone may place her in a different aesthetic category, but who (like Hynde) has passed blithely through glass ceilings -- iconoclastic, adventurous and influential.

  • Searching for a Missing Piece. My Correspondence with Alan Horvath
    Searching for a missing piece. My correspondence with Alan Horvath. Some notes by Andrew Russ Alan Horvath was a traditional letter writer, a holdout in the emailing/texting/facebooking/twittering world of today. While most of my correspondence lately has been through email, my interaction with Alan was entirely through the mail. It was always a pleasure to get a letter, even if brief, as each piece came as a piece of art, in a carefully selected colored and stamped envelope. Here are some examples (one of which I had removed the postage stamp for my collection; Alan made sure to select interesting postage stamps): 1 My correspondence with Alan began in earnest in the aftermath of levyfest at Cleveland State University in 2005. I may have earlier sent a letter asking for a catalog after purchasing a couple of the Kirpan Press volumes of early d.a. levy poetry at Mac’s Backs in Cleveland Heights or perhaps Ingrid gave him my address. At levyfest I had picked up a copy of Booji Boy: My Struggle, the little red book by Devo. For some reason I mentioned picking it up as well as discussing the books he had published. Alan sent this reply: 2 It was interesting to find out that one of the people associated with levy was involved in a project involving the 1970s musical scene in northeast Ohio, which I had been a fan of for many years. Besides Devo, there were Pere Ubu, Rocket from the Tombs, The Electric Eels, Mirrors, The Styrenes, Peter Laughner, Tin Huey, and plenty more I’ve left out.
