Billy Childish - I Am The Billy Childish (fifty songs from fifty records) 2 x CD

Sub Pop SP116. 1991


Number 1366 of 2500, apparently. Definitely a case of quantity over quality. The first CD is a load of 12-bar, badly recorded, poorly performed garage shit. The second disk cleans itself up a bit, but still nothing of note.

Poor songs. Poor singing. Poor playing. Poor recording. Just rubbish.

I do actually like some Thee Headcoats, and some of the Blackhands stuff, but on the whole I think this guy is one of the most over-rated in music.
