Wonderful WonderfulI had never heard Half Japaneese before I picked up the Greatest Hits, and I cant believe I was an idiot for waiting to hear them. Dont be scared off by the amount of music....its so vast and indelible, you'll wish it was 112 songs. The musical range is so amazing, and it has the best saxpophone playing this side of Dolphy's Out To Lunch. Yeah, supposedly "they cant play" etc...but I think thats nonsense. Music like this really is limitless, from free jazz to funk, to bedroom feedback jams......…

Music like this really is limitless, from free jazz to funk, to bedroom feedback jams.......its really a miracle for the ears and heart. So, buy buy buy buy. PS--(and this is very important) if anyone out there has a copy of the long out of print "Zombies of Mora-Tau" EP, please contact me, I'm really getting tired of searching for it

WHAT!!I personally think that Jad Fair may very well be the owner of the most annoying voice in the world. I was a witness to this ear tryrannist at Austin's Emos rock club and apart from his drummer I hope that I never have to face that voice again.
