Post by blooch »

I don't have them in front of me but I do recall EC talking about his life-long friend Joel in the liner notes to either the Ryko or Rhino reissue of BY.

That sounds right. Didn't Joel move to Australia? I seem to recall that EC said he visited him whilst he was on tour (sometime within the last 12 years or so). No doubt Mr Foyle will put me right!

I love the pictures of the two of them growing up playing cowboys. Such child like innocence.
Who’s this kid with his mumbo jumbo?

Old question, I know, but did this (along with Kojak Variety and Painted From Memory ) ever get released on vinyl ?
