MONKEY 101 review by Jay Hinman, Editor
Jay may have written this ode to Monkey 101 22 years ago, but the "right now" part applies today, cuz they just posted their unreleased 1993 LP + the Silbreeze and Papa Popov 7"!
$7 gets you the whole shebang known as Rusts, Smut and Heart Rot at bandcamp. Welcome back.

Monkey 101 have a website, which includes this 2013 "interview"...
"We met up with Paul and Bob outside the Philadelphia Record Exchange last August. Here's what they had to say.
Tom Leader: You guys seem like some kind of enigma. Do you still play music? Paul: Yes, I've been playing with my band Chino for the last ten years or so. Bob: I have also. TL: What do you think of the current music scene? Bob: A bit like Manchester, England here. Paul: I really like ... TL: Do you guys have an idea if you'll be getting back together again soon? Paul: Yes. Bob: I would rather play than pay today. TL: Do you have much contact with any of the bands that were around when you were playing? Paul: I don't talk to Sonic Youth that much anymore, you know the breakup, but I still am in contact with Norman Greenbaum. Bob: We still talk to Ashtray. TL: What was the last time you guys got together to write a song? Paul: During the Fairport Convention era. Bob: At least a couple of minutes ago.
The sky was beginning to set on South Street so we shook hands and talked to Jose."
