After quite some time, I’ve decided to get around to taking some stuff off my minidiscs again, converting them to mp3s, and uploading some more music. This time, I’ve decided to revisit some of the cool stuff that John Lyons used to release. (John’s much too busy doing much cooler things these days, so he doesn’t spend time putting out cool records with nice hand-silk-screened covers and so on. I guess we can’t have too much of a good thing, right?)
Anyway, here, I’ve uploaded the two Reality Control? compilations released on Reality Control? Recordings a long time ago.

Thanks!
John gave me the second one many years ago, but I never got my hands on the first one.
I just started putting up mp3s from good/hard to find records, and I was thinking of transferring the Jeberrekenelle/Rugburn split, since that’s one of my favorite records. But now I see I don’t need to! I forgot that you have all these mp3s here…
Thanks for making/puting out so much good music.
Thanks for making these available, Ananda! I didn’t have the first comp. I digitized Crack’s Pooberty a couple years ago, if you haven’t already and want it. John also claims there’s an original DAT master somewhere…
Hey Dan,
I wish John would dig through his masters and put some stuff online… I’m surprised he hasn’t complained about my putting the Shadows and Tall Trees demo online since he has always said that he wants to remaster it. I guess he’s too busy covering guitars with snakeskins!

Wow. I haven’t heard this since it was released. I’m the drummer from Han Shan. Thanks for taking the time to convert the songs!
Shawn,
Thanks for the comment. How’s Dave? I’d love to get my hands on the Suckerpunch stuff and put that online too, but all my records are on the other side of the world….
