PAVEMENT review by BILL CALLAHAN, Editor

Could of sworn we posted this Bill Callahan Slay Tracks review before, but multiple Google searches say different.  You think we would’ve kept an off-line database of postings since we started in July 2013, but uh... 

What we did find in the Archives re: PAVEMENT

JAY HINMAN reviews Perfect Sound Forever on page 34 of Superdope #2 (Summer 1991): “Stockton duo who’re creators of two of the last 700 days’ golden singles, possessing a rare mix of dapper fuzzed-pop skewedness and righteously tamppered-with form.”

JAMES MCNEW reviews an early Pavement cassette on page 39 of Popwatch #2 in Summer 1990 (editor: Leslie Gaffney):  “Like if Chrome were a krecs band.”

BILL CALLAHAN? From THE ORIGIN OF FUCKIN’ RECORD REVIEWS by The Editor of FRR, PART 5: DISASTER by BILL CALLAHAN: “Bill was caustic, but unmistakably sharp, and personalized his listening in harsh terms. HIs odes to Jandek still stand as some of the best writing about the man from Houston we’ve ever read.” [as originally published in…DYNAMITE HEMORRHAGE #1 (December 2013) JAY HINMAN, Editor

Bill Callahan continues to record really good music for the Drag City Empire, which can be found here.

The Great Mississippi Flood of 1927 was the most destructive flood in US History, with a death toll of around 500 and over 600,00 people displaced.  After the flood water receded, the levee system and spillways were introduced to reduce the impact of later floods.
