The "It's a Fucking Boot!" series:
This is a series of LPs that are contain unreleased live (and sometimes demo) material that are packaged and presented as a tribute to the great 70's and early 80's bootleg LPs that my friends and I used to buy. Labels like TMOQ (Trademark of Quality) used to pump out LPs that looked like these by the truckload- blank white labels in white cardboard sleeves with an insert style cover, they were amazing! Later on bootleggers got fancy and started doing professional printed sleeves and stuff, which were cool too but nothing beat the vibe of these early bootleg LPs, so I wanted to try and bring that back with this "It's a Fuckin' Boot" LP series. If only I could find a way to make the cellophane tape I use to tape the inserts on the sleeve yellow and crack so it looks like it will in 20 years I'd be set! But in time they will get that look, so hold onto them! |
