                              HUH? (1996)
                    The "Best of?" None of the Above

                     Original Usenet Liner Notes
================================================================================

After about a year in the works...I've finally finished:

                               HUH?
                   The "Best of?" None of the Above

Yes, I've compiled a bunch of songs from the last four tapes I gave out
a while back, re-recorded them, and put it on CD! Of course, I could
only afford to make one... But if you'd like a tape of this magnificent
recording, I'd be glad to make you one.

I'm influenced by Weird Al, Devo, They Might be Giants and Oingo Boingo.
Mostly keyboard oriented stuff and all that.

                    [HISTORICAL NOTE - February 2026]

    This was the "re-recording everything in General MIDI" project
    using a Roland SC-88. The idea was to standardize everything.

    In retrospect: it sucked the life out of the music. The originals
    with their tin-can microphones, Magical Musical Things, and cat
    keyboard solos had more soul than any standardized version could.

    The chaos WAS the texture. You can't General MIDI that.
