Show Me Where They Touched You Skatenigs Volume One of Skatenigs Classics!Liner Notes:Chemical imbalance- The first Skatenigs track to be recorded. We recorded live at Trax studio in Chicago under the direction of Al Jourgensen. Lorri Jackson wrote the prologue and performed it the next day. Al worked his magic. Jim and Danny at Wax Trax records loved it and the rest is history.Shit Authority- This was the first track the band had ever written. It started with a 2 Live Crew beat, a punk riff and a general disdain for authority.Horny for Evil- Al and I had joked around during Beers, Steers and Queers session about writing a song about how many lives are murdered with each ejaculation and there you have it. The phone call intro was Phildo calling from studio B to studio A at Trax studio. Critter took the call and recorded it. By the way, stupid people really shouldn’t breed.Passion for Destruction- One of the first songs written for the sophomore release What a Mangled Web We Leave. Inspired by the band mascot, a pit bull Letters of Oscar Wilde, Volume 3 (1895-1897) by Oscar Wilde (1854 - 1900) ciesse This third collection of the correspondence of Oscar Wilde includes the letters Wilde wrote from prison. It begins with notes of thanks to the friends who stood by him after his arrest, and ends with discussions of his plans for after his release. De Profundis, the long letter Wilde wrote to his lover, Lord Alfred Douglas, is represented by the expurgated 1913 edition as well as suppressed portions that were later published elsewhere. The letters are sourced from auction catalogues, biographies, and other texts in the public domain. For a complete collection of Wilde's letters, please see "The Complete Letters of Oscar Wilde," (2000) edited by Merlin Holland and Rupert Hart-Davis. - Summary by Rob Marland Notes On A Journey Notes On A Journey „Discovering and rediscovering music“ is NOAJ's slogan and by this credo productions and recordings (records, cassettes, never before released master tapes) from days gone by shall and will find its audience. NOAJ tells the tale of mis-launched careers, failed dreams, gutted hopes, criminally overlooked masterpieces and of music that has been probably way too ahead of its time.
