Barnaby took some records from his pep-pep to play at WCBN and this gem was among the 45s. Being the great friend that I try to be, I offered to make an MP3 of the 45. Here it is!
I present to you, Back to Ypsilanti by Lee Osler. Recorded in 1983 for Mustache Records.
You can learn more about the song, here! They also have a MP3 of the song, but I think my recording sounds better; the vocals are less washed out in mine and it doesn’t sound as 2D and flat.
Thanks Barnaby!

I’d recommend “SNAKES on a kindergarten!!!” and “Epic photography maneuver” for you viewing pleasure.
Also try “RED RANGER does the POKEMON”, complete with MIDI metal music from The Incredible Machine for MS-DOS.

pile:
“The tomato is now mostly accepted as a fruit but many other vegetables are also fruits. For example peppers and cucumbers are also fruits since they contain seeds. In fact, pea pods are fruits as well, while peas are seeds. There isn’t any scientific classification for “vegetable”. Any vegetables that we eat are just parts of a plant; like roots (potatoes and carrots), stems (celery and rhubarb), leaves (lettuce and spinach) and flowers (broccoli and cauliflower).” Everything you know is wrong!

Bryan Formhals, from La Pura Vida gallery, interviewed me about careers, traveling, Alec Soth, and “the game.”
Insightful!
In 1980, the city of Detroit presented Saddam Hussein with a key to the city.

The original untitled track that inspired “Marla” off Yellow House, sung by Ed’s great aunt, Marla Forbes.
I was always curious as to what this song actually sounded like. This is interesting.
