Dear Radio Dodohead,
My DJ played this song the other day; I could not remember hearing it; I think I missed it, like I missed Lizzie Mercier Descloux. Maybe 'missed' is the wrong word: I was late to hearing it. I listened to some other Suburban Lawn songs, and saw there was this beautiful thing, too, a whole album by Suburban Lawn's lead singer: Salon de Musique.
PS
I think what gets me, when I find I missed a thing, or that I am very late to a thing; things like Eve Babitz, The Fabulous Stains, Hal Hartley Films, or No Wave, is that I wonder what other lavish gifts of the era I missed- and I also wonder, why, oh why, in the name of all that is good, didn't I miss seeing Beatlemania at Knott's Berry Farm?
