Anyone remember HEMIOLA RECORDS?
UK label run by a woman named Justine. She placed this ad in Superdope #6, a fanzine I put out in 1993. The Fly Ashtray and TFUL282 records she released were quite excellent.

- Jay succumbs to the magic of THINKING FELLERS UNION LOCAL 282 23 years ago.
From the fanzine I published 23 years ago. Guess this is what I was doing on that exact evening. Tonight I might go to bed around 9:30.
Thought I’d dash off another radio show/podcast for you to make sure your week was stacked with fantastic tuneage from the underground….this one’s just over an hour, and is Edition #11 of theDynamite Hemorrhage Radio Podcast, which is streamable and downloadable at the links below. Somehow I jammed 25 songs into 60+ minutes; some of ‘em are dumb, some of ’em are fast, some of them are edifying and artful and totally mind-expanding. Some may blow you from here into the next century. If that happens, please let me know, OK?

Let’s revisit the awesome THINKING FELLERS UNION LOCAL 282, a band seemingly and unjustly lost to the 1990s and barely remarked-upon for the last decade and a half. At one point this San Francisco quintet were one of the most inventive, loopy and dissonantly fun rock and roll bands around.
This is “Sister Hell” from their first full-length album, “Tangle” from 1989.
WORLD OF POOH, live in 1989 at the 6th Street Rendezvous in San Francisco.
The band featured Barbara Manning (solo, SF Seals, 28th Day), Brandan Kearney (Caroliner, many other experimental bands) and Jay Paget (later of Thinking Fellers Union Local 282). For a year or two they were absolutely the best ticket in town for shambolic, wiry pop music.
