This enigmatic compilation EP has just shown up on discogs.net. Apparently recorded live in Rahway, NJ in 1985, it includes xex‘s “Baby It’s You.” This is one of two songs I remember from the late-period xex shows I saw – the other was “Vietnam Vet.” I’ve almost convinced myself that I imagined this song, and I must hear it. Look, I know there are record collectors and WFMU types that read this blog. Who’s got it? Who can make me a copy, mp3 or otherwise? I’ll reward you with some rare pixilated tracks of my own.
And while we’re on the subject: xex performing “St. Vitus Dance” live at Hurrah!, 1981. Filmed/produced by the same folks who did YMG’s Live At The Hurrah! DVD. Someday I’ll get around to updating the xex site to include this clip.
