Jad Fair & Daniel Johnston ‎– "Jad Fair And Daniel Johnston( Its Spooky )" (50,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 Watts Records ‎– JAD9-2) 1989



Here they are, the Outsider music dreamteam. All that is missing to make the perfect Outsider power trio would be Jandek on guitar.
You thought you knew everything about music, well it turns out you were wrong.They told us there were twelve notes,they were wrong, they told us about time signatures....they were wrong, syncopation ,forget it.In fact everything they would force down a young person's throat in music school, and now rock school, is total bollocks!
A music class by Jad Fair would last maybe five minutes....."Just go and do it", would be the essence of this masterclass. Its a year zero,back to nature approach that we all would benefit from, without any need for Pol pot.
There's no need to 'Unlearn' anything if you don't learn it in the first place.

This is the CD version by the way...its got more on it.
