In reply to Riley.

Thanks, Riley! No, there was no media attention when I posted this; at least not as far as I know.

Please do feel free to add this to Discogs; I’m only halfway through logging my vinyl, and I’m afraid cataloging my cassettes would ensure neither task will ever be complete!

This is really quite an incredible find, and a monumental gift for his fans. Did this not get any media attention four years ago?
I’m also not seeing it on discogs.com yet, I’d want your permission to add it to the database first, of course, or I’d love to see your addition to the site considering all the background info you have.
Sorry for the ramble, considering the age of this blogpost, I’m not even sure if you’ll see this. please feel free to reach out to me via e-mail, or here if you’re still alive. Can’t thank you enough for these incredible cassettes.

In reply to Jim Santo. Wow, that's so cool! I had no idea there was a third cassette, I don't think I've seen that listed anywhere.

In reply to Sean. Thanks Sean! I am 99% certain I have Kid Colgate around here somewhere; it's just a matter of locating it. While looking for it just now, I came across the self-titled "red cassette" containing three songs recorded in 1987 and 1988, and released in 1989. This was the very first East River Pipe cassette, which has come to be known as New York Of Slime, after the title of one of the songs. The other two are "At The Bar" and "Goin' To Hollywood. I will post these shortly. Stay tuned!

Awesome to finally have these missing songs. I saw on reddit a couple of years ago someone had the Kid Colgate cassette but he says he sold it to someone and doesn’t have a rip. So sad, there’s two missing songs from there.

I once asked F.M. Cornog if he would consider rereleasing this material but he says it embarrasses him too much. But half (or more) of both of his tapes are featured on Shining Hours in a Can and even more on the Merge rerelease, and I think the early songs are just as valid as the new stuff, Helmet On being one of my favorites.

Again thanks for the upload. Would be amazed if you found Kid Colgate, would really make my day!

In reply to Efstathiou Stathis. Hi Stathis, I am not allowing downloads of East River Pipe music. I don't think Fred would approve of it. Sorry.
