  Shonen Knife were introduced to me and many others in an unusual way. Even though they were still rather obscure and their music was very hard to find in the early 90’s, they were rewarded very early in their career with an amazing honor, a tribute album! 

  Here’s a look at that album (on cassette!) and the track listing…

  At Last! I’ve wanted a copy Rock Animals on vinyl for ages, and now I finally have it! Listening to “Music Square” is now even sweeter. :)
