Tanya, I bet there are others more expert at the searches than I am, but if you go to smoe.org and then lists and then Joni it brings up all the digest archives for the past few years. I think these were sometime last Spring. I'm sure a more proficient jmdler can give you better guidance. By the time HOSL came out I was into buying 8-tracks for my little car player and never had it on vinyl or CD until just a few years ago. The 8-track was well-worn and although it didn't hit me like previous Jonis, it always intrigued me artistically. I always got the theme of suburban disaffection and alienation. Plus I loved the whole swimming pool and lawn sprinklers imagery as a sort of icon for post 50s-60s suburban banality. However, it took the list here and also hearing the HOSL demos for me to truly appreciate it in greater depth. Kakki > >>Sounds like a great idea!
