Inspired by the ROIR thread, this was another boutique label that put out some pretty cool little things.
In fact, it was the 45 of "Speeding Motorcycle" (later reissued in a longer version on
Genius + Yo La Tengo) that was out on this label that was my first exposure to Daniel Johnston.
Here is a link to what I believe to be a semi-complete discography:
http://www.discogs.com/label/Singles%20Only%20LabelQuote:
7" vinyl-only label co-founded by Steve Fallon (founder of the Coyote Records label and owner of Hoboken, NJ club Maxwell's) and Bob Mould (Husker Du, Sugar, solo artist, DJ). Day-to-operations were handled by label manager and WFMU radio personality Nick Hill.
Initial releases had picture sleeves, but the label soon moved to a generic four-color, die-cut label sleeve/house bag for most titles. A small number of co-releases with Jeremy Tepper's Diesel Only label were undertaken, and these too had their own die-cut generic sleeve bearing both label logos, and often contained perforated paper jukebox strips.
Really want those R. Stevie Moore, Cocktails, and Peter Laughner 7"s.
