HELLO AND THANKS FOR PARTING WITH THOSE HARD-EARNED SPOONDOOLACKS FOR
THIS HUMBLE LITTLE E.P.. WE AT BLACKBALL (that being little more than
JAWBREAKER with some bank), HAVE DESIGNED THIS PRODUCT FOR PURE LISTENER
SATISFACTION. WE'VE RAN OURSELVES RAGGED IN AN ATTEMPT TO ASSEMBLE AN
ENTERTAINING AND INFORMATIVE PACKAGE THAT'LL KEEP YOU GLUED TO THE FLOOR
READING, LISTENING, THINKING, PERHAPS EVEN TOUCHING YOURSELF IN SECRET
PLACES. TO THE SEASONED LISTENER, THIS MAY SOUND LIKE A REAL LOAD, BUT TO
US IT'S CHRISTMAS. IT'S LIKE CEREAL -- YOU CAN EAT IT WITHOUT READING THE
BACK OF THE BOX, RIGHT? THE SAME MAY BE SAID OF RECORDS. YOU NEED
SOMETHING TO LOOK AT. HOW MANY TIMES HAVE YOU RUSHED HOME FROM THE RECORD
STORE, THOROUGHLY STOKED ON A NEW PURCHASE, ONLY TO FIND IT INCLUDES
NOTHING MORE THAN A BLACK DISC AND A WHITE SLEEVE? OR, WORSE STILL, A
SEE-THROUGH PLASTIC SLEEVE? THERE YOU SIT, POOR AND CLUELESS, AS SOME
STRANGE WORDS AND MUSIC FLY BY YOU REFUSING TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES.
YOU'VE GOT TO BE CAREFUL. THE GROOVE MAY BE REALLY ENTICING AND THE WORDS
MAY BE SLURRED BEYOND RECOGNITION. SO YOUR'E TAPPING YOUR FOOT IN
IGNORANT BLISS UNTIL SOME BRAINY PAL TELLS YOU IT'S A WHITE POWER GROUP
FROM RIO WHO WOULD PROBABLY EXTERMINATE HALF YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS IF
THEY HAD THE CHANCE. OKAY GUYS, YOU LOVE AMERICA BUT YOU GET YOUR BOOTS
FROM ENGLAND. UNCLE TOM METZGERS? WELL FEAR NOT, GOOD READER, THIS
PRODUCT COMES TO YOU BUCK NAKED, WILLING TO SHOW YOU EVERY CRACK OF IT'S
WELL-DEFINED PERSON. A NUDE E.P. INDEED. SO, AGAIN WE THANK YOU FOR
INVOLVING YOURSELF AND ENCOURAGE YOU TO WRITE US AT THE PEOPLE'S COMMITTEE
TO ABOLISH THE MOUSTACHE: JAWBREAKER P.O. BOX 480321 L.A., CA. 90048
