DAN MELCHIOR’s (in collaboration with his wife LETHA RODMAN) latest called The Heron (Doesn’t Care When the Woman Stamps Her Boot). Dan’s music continues to evolve and is very much a separate entity from some of his earlier blues based work. While most people know Dan’s garage work with Billy Childish, Holly Golightly and his own band Broke Revue, this record is certainly more on the experimental side of things in terms of sound. An edition of 231 copies;. We hand cut and constructed the inner sleeve, and attached a photograph that Dan took to it. Then a window was hand cut hand in the outer jacket to reveal/frame Dan’s photo. The record centers are hand stamped (with an image based on a drawing of Dan’s).

Well, I already have records in people’s hands ready for release (big surprise!) and they will emerge next year. Letha and I did a record together called ‘The Heron’ which will come out in a very limited edition on Limited Appeal records next year. A lot of the ‘songs’ on that one are in the same vein as the ‘excerpts’ material, but Letha reads excerpts from the book I am trying to write (that Swingset printed an excerpt from!) over the top of the music. She was feeling a bit under the weather at the time, so the reading is a bit stilted, and she stumbles on her words and stuff, but I think it gives it a much nicer feel than if it had all been done perfectly. It’s an interesting record!
