Hi! Welcome to my showlist. I have diverse tastes and my shows run the gamut from 70's psych rock to punk to free improv. From Can and Magma to Bad Brains, Dead Kennedys and nomeansno to Henry Kaiser, Fred Frith and Derek Bailey, with a bit of proto-metal, 80's pop and Nina Hagen thrown in for good measure. My personal favorite artist is Henry Kaiser and I am ALWAYS looking for anything related to him (solo, Yo Miles!, FFKT, Crazy Backwards Alphabet, etc).

PLEASE get in touch with me if you have any of the following artists to trade:

1. Henry Kaiser [solo or collaborations, Yo Miles, French/Frith/Kaiser/Thompson, Crazy Backwards Alphabet, Palace of Love, Grooves of Mystery, Psychedelic Guitar Circus, any other band formations, any sit-ins]
2. Boiled in Lead
3. Sadhappy
4. Boud Deun / Shawn Persinger
5. Djam Karet
6. Black Sun Ensemble / Jesus Acedo
7. Forever Einstein / C.W. Vrtacek
8. Wayne Krantz
9. Nomeansno
10. Blind Idiot God
11. Nina Hagen
12. 5uu's / Motor Totemist Guild / Dave Kerman

Also, please check out my Mike Keneally page and the Official Henry Kaiser Website.

I love to trade and will often help someone out with a b&p if requested nicely and the circumstances allow. But I am usually very involved in a lot of things, so don't be insulted if you don't hear back from me. Just keep trying.

If you're interested in a trade, here are a couple things to keep in mind:

1) Please make sure there is no lossy compression in your show's history...lossless formats ONLY!!!
2) I try to mark any shows that are TAO so that you are aware of the fact before we trade. Please be upfront with me as well.
3) I use good quality TDK/Fuji/Taiyo Yuden blanks. I ask that you also use good quality blanks (please NO Maxell).
4) Please DO NOT write on the discs; or if you must, only in the clear "core" of the disc.
5) Use non-scratch envelopes for the discs...I have actually received discs wrapped in pages from the telephone book!
6) Bubble wrap mailers only....any fiber mailers will be returned unopened!
7) Please COMMUNICATE! I will keep you updated throughout the trading process...please do the same for me.

I don't mean to sound too rigid, it's just that these few simple guidelines really make for a smooth trade. I follow the same rules and just ask that you do also. Overall, just remember that this is only a hobby, let's keep things fun and enjoyable for everyone. Happy trading!

I have eclectic tastes....my shows range from wild free improv to arena rock. My first and foremost collecting focus is Henry Kaiser and anything related to him and his music. After that, I am looking for what I would characterize as "punkjazz," intense, energetic and boldly improvisational music. I also am always in want of great '60's-'70's era psychedelic freakouts. And weird pop from any period, i.e. Oingo Boingo or Stan Ridgway. I use high quality TDK discs, and prefer to trade for same (or of equal quality). Not all my shows are rated, please contact me if you have questions regarding the sound quality of a particular item. I may occasionally be talked into doing a B&P trade, but typically shy away from them for time reasons. If there is something you have really just got to have, but don't have a reasonable trade for it, ask me and we can probably work out something.
