The History Of Punk On The Lower East Side:Jeffrey Lewis

Artist: Jeffrey Lewis

Album:

Appears On (Mixes): Revme.Vox.Com

Song Notes: I believe I got this a long time ago from WFMU's Beware Of The Blog, but I'm not even 100% sure of that. It's not a straight song like I normally post, but it is pretty cool just the same. The title is pretty, well, descriptive -- it's a audio history of punk on the Lower East Side of New York. Lots of little musical interludes and whatnot. I believe there is a corresponding comic book as well. These are the original notes that I jammed in my Comments Field of the mp3. These either come from WFMU (probably) or wherever else I grabbed it from (i.e. these aren't my words, don't think I wrote them): ''9 minute acoustic medley opus performed live by anti-folk sweetheart Jeffrey Lewis! Damn good job too, made sure he included the Godz! Jeffrey has also created a comic book to goes along with this song; more info can be found on his website.'' And, for the record, this is his site: http://www.thejeffreylewissite.com/. -Rev. Syung Myung Me
