"This is listed as a
Farmers
LP, but it's actually a survey of
Daved Hild
's earliest work after the dissolution of Boston's best-ever band,
The Girls
. Chronologically, the earliest recording here is 'The Fear,' recorded at Sorcerer Sound in NYC for a proposed Lust/Unlust EP called
A Dog's Prayer
. Daved is joined by another ex-Girl,
Robin Amos
, and ex-
Mission of Burma
multi-tasker
Roger Miller
. After that come the Farmers tracks, recorded in Cambridge. Daved had been doing solo work in NYC, dressed as a Mennonite farmer, but when he was up north the Farmers were a duo with Roger, who'd add trumpet, keys, and whatnot to the mix. Finally, there are a couple of demo tracks recorded in Boston with Roger,
David Minehan
(of
The Neighborhoods
), and
Dan Salzmann
(ex-
Maps
, then in
Christmas
). Daved, of course, played in a vast array of different units and configurations after The Girls, but this album is a solid survey of his early output. His approach to songwriting (perhaps best known for 'Jeffrey I Hear You,' from The Girls' Hearthan single) is amazing and cuts into personal flesh no matter whether he knows anything about yr history or not. Singing like a pro wrestler trying to get all sensitive, he manages to convey huge vistas of hurt and strangeness without coming off like either a fop or a thug. It is a sheer pleasure to present this album of Daved's purist inventions" --
Byron Coley
, 2015. Edition of 350.
