Bush League All Stars

 

Technically, I'm not allowed to sell anything through this website because it's in the agreement. And I'd hate to lose my lease so early. All I can say is some of these records are still available and others aren't. Here's my email address should you want any further information. Here's the chronological rundown on what's out there...

 

	Item	Description	Price
	Two Hour Trip split single with Boys From Nowhere	"Dear Richard" Datapanik 7" 1989 Peter Laughner cover done for the inaugural Datapanik single. Recorded at Musicol in 35 minutes flat. Including setup. Long gone.	Sold Out
No scan available	Big Red Sun	"Compulsion" b/w "Faintest Clue" Datapanik 7" 1991 Still have some beautiful, see-through, red colored vinyl. Individually numbered - 600 pressed, 100 colored.	Available
	Greenhorn Bumped By Karaoke compilation	"Sassafras Tea," "The Dreamer" Datapanik CD 1991 This compilation features tracks from all of Datapanik's roster, including The New Bomb Turks, Gaunt, Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments, etc. Our tracks were recorded moments after our inception.	Sold Out
	Greenhorn	"The Progress" b/w "A Bit of Real Sadness" Datapanik 7" 1991 We set up our Marshall stacks and drums in the living room of Mark, Nancy & my house on East Duncan and Chip Carter tweaked the knobs on a footpedal delay unit for that extra special something. Numbered edition of 600 with 500 black/100 see-thru yellow.	Available
	Greenhorn	"Conversations With Myself" b/w "Callous" Datapanik/Anyway 7" 1992 We opened up Bernie's Distillery one Sunday afternoon (it used to close) and commenced a free show for anyone willing to put up with us doing the same songs over and over. Close inspection will reveal hidden nuggets of chaotic beauty. Numbered edition of 600 with 500 black/100 see-thru green.	Available
	Greenhorn Cowtown EP Volume 1	"Shell" Anyway 7" 1992 The track for this one was done in Bernie's too. The infamous Joe Harvard worked with Craig Dunson and Chip Carter to create this lil' masterpiece. We share the grooves with Belreve, V3 and Gaunt.	Sold Out
	Greenhorn	"Through The Thick Of It" b/w "Chastity" Anyway 7" 1993 Mark, my brother, did the cover for this offering and it remains one of my favorites. These songs were originally intended to be a part of an LP/CD but that never materialized. Recorded in Steve's Garage in Pataskala, OH. Also pressed in marbled grey.	Available
No scan available	Greenhorn For Your Ears Only Sampler	"Leadhead" Eardrop Productions comp. CD 1993 I think this track was recorded live at the now-defunct Stache's by Craig Dunson but I could be wrong. Don't know if any more of these discs exist.	Sold Out
	Greenhorn	"Lover's Song" b/w "Liar's Song" 3 Beads of Sweat 7" 1994 These two were also from Steve's Garage. We were fans of Ajax' Tim Adams before he asked us to do the first single for his new offshoot and that obviously didn't change. Word is, 3BOS is back in business after a hiatus of sorts.	Available
No scan available	Greenhorn Pop Narcotic Compilation	"50 Ways To Leave Your Lover" Pop Narcotic double 10" EP's 1994 We were amazed to be a part of this comp. with some of the big indie names of the early '90's: Grifters, The Dambuilders, Sleepyhead, Versus, Polvo, Kudgel. This track was salvaged out of some free recording time we won as part of a local music award and this song was always a band favorite. Out of print.	Available
	Bush League All Stars	Old Numbers Pop Narcotic/Glitterhouse CD 1995 Recorded in Chicago with Robt. Weston at Albini's House, I was starstruck to say the least. That is, until I found a copy of "Everyone Poops" in the bathroom and realized these guys are human too.	Available
	Bush League All Stars	Mashed Potato EP "Pencilweight" b/w "Cut From Years" Pop Narcotic 7" 1995 A-side was straight off of the record. B-side was done in The Donger's kitchen with a single mic, ala The Cowboy Junkies. Except with a really cheap microphone and a 4-track. These were all pressed on beautiful, mashed potato-white vinyl, of course.	Available
No scan available	Bush League All Stars Little Darla Has a Treat For You comp.	"S.S.E." Darla compilation CD 1996 This track was gathered from the unreleased second All-Stars full-length recorded for Pop Narcotic. It was recorded in Chicago by Robt. Weston. I love that guy.	Check with Darla
No scan available	Dan Spurgeon I Stayed Up All Night Listening to Records comp.	"Telling Secrets and Forming Unions" Anyway compilation CD 1998 I conceived, wrote, and recorded this song one Sunday. Inspired by a great painting by Dave Dickas called "A Choir", it was one of those beautiful, elongated moments for me where the whole thing fell together wonderfully. Craig Dunson was, fortunately, available to twirl the knobs and provide further inspiration on short notice and it happened.	Check with Anyway
	Bush League All Stars Cringe.com/pilation Volume 3	"Second Story" Cringe.com compilation CD 2003 Yet another Chicago track finally seeing the light of day. I was amazed to get a track accepted on here as I really did think that Cringe's founder, Joel hated my bands. He once compared Greenhorn to REO Speedwagon, which I took as a complement but which was intended as an insult, I believe.	Available
	Bush League All Stars	What a Mess Bladdernine Records CD/EP 2003 I skimmed the cream from the second album (that never was) and put those tracks on this special little release. This limited edition, hand-crafted, get-the-music-to-the-people EP attempts to bridge the gap between Old Numbers and 2003. Some of the discs contain a random additional track. For no good reason.	Available
	Bush League All Stars	Academic EP T-Shirt Get the t-shirt from the record that never happened! Guaranteed to be a collector's item, this fly fishing design was conceived to go along with the release of the ill-fated Academic EP for Pop Narcotic. This is a heavyweight, 100% cotton T-shirt. I once had different colors and sizes. Now there are none.	Sold Out
	Greenhorn	Live at WMBR Self Released CD/EP 2005 Recorded live for WMBR in Cambridge, MA. This 1993 document was recorded by John Magee for the student radio station for MIT way back when. The miracle of digital music brings it back from lost!	Available from CD Baby
	Greenhorn	Greenhorn Self Released CD 2005 Swan song disc that marked a little old stuff, a little new stuff. Recorded by Jon Chinn in his Workbook Studios space of yore. Fun to make, hopefully, fun to listen to...	Available from CD Baby

There is some stuff here I don't have but I can tell you where to look. For Datapanik stuff, try Justin Frohwirth's commendable site of Datapanik history with an amazingly complete discography for someone who didn't live in Columbus. Anyway Records still has a site of their own and one of its founders, Bela is as good a person as you'll meet. Bela uses a couple of different distributors but currently, the website points people to Midheaven.com. Pop Narcotic is no longer in business but I can't believe he sold all the Bush League records/CD's. I'm still hoping to gain access to some of those, should they exist. I found a couple of sites online that still claim to have copies of Old Numbers. One is called Jungle.com and appears to be the cheapest I've located. Music Katalog is another and I have no idea what language it is; looks like Czech to me. Another is Out Of Print Music.com. It's really expensive here but if you really want the record, they seem to have it. Or try Greatest Hits Mailorder. You'll have to do your own monetary conversions though... Get Hip Records, out of Pittsburgh, rereleased some Anyway stuff so you might check with them too. The same is true of Engine Recordings but I couldn't find a valid link for them.
