Another fuckin' van stolen...


We just had yet another fuckin' van stolen. This time in the parking lot of the Echo Lounge. It is a 1989 Blue and white, Chevy Vermillion and featured a brand new tank of gas. If you find our van, you'll get a reward.

Darker Blues - ON SALE FOR ONLY $25.00


Darker Blues is a 100+ page book of photographs of the musicians of Fat Possum Records. In addition to the photos, Joe Sacco's now-classic story, "The Rude Blues" is printed here, as a stand alone comic book. It's the first appearance of the story since it showed up in Details magazine several years ago. Barry Hannah and J ohn Barry have both contributed essays to the book as well.

A book about music that contains no music just seemed wrong, so we included two CDs packaged into the book as well. The 16 tracks on CD1 show what we're up to at the moment. The 7 tracks on CD2 are something special: Seven never before released tracks of R.L. Burnside music.
