their respective outfits and inspired by the performance-art piece, "You'll

by local veterans Brett Burleson, John Olexovitch, Bobby Silver, and Zac
Szymusiak,
released this LP on vinyl-dedicated Columbus Discount Records label
in late-2011. As with the rest of Ron's solid output, Old 3C is happy

Alyosha Het is a Columbus-area singer/songwriter who's first record,
The Purgatourist, was issued by Indiana's Chain
Smoking label in 2010. He soon hipped-us here at Old 3C headquarters
to his Marc Bolan-meets-Robyn Hitchcock, home-brewed song-craft, and we
brought him aboard. We think your going to like this a lot, and invite
you to check-out even more tracks at his Reverb

The prolific
Mr. Matson is back with his second
full-length
release, just a few months after his well-received debut (Motorhome Boogie,
3C 39, below). And while it's clear that his
previous work was pretty special, The Interlocutor is an even stronger
set of songs, also expertly self-produced. The Buckley/Orbison/Thompson
touch-points are still present, but Randall takes them to places only
he can go. Beautiful stuff.

This
is a new project from James (J.P.) Olsen of Beetkeepers, Burn
Barrel, and Great State of Ohio fame. He has a host of indie-rock
luminaries helping him out on these five tracks, and they bring out the
best of his intelligent, melodic songs. Produced by the legendary Anton
Fier with
assistance from Mike Jung and Tim Easton. Features contributions from
Fier, Jung and Easton -- along with Matt Newman, Matt Surgeson, Tony Scherr
and Aaron Lee Tasjan, among many others.

Singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist
Randall Douglas Matson is a Columbus-native who's written a novel and
performed as a professional opera singer. Luckily for us, he's also taken
the time to record his songs, which in this collection bring to mind legends
such as Tim Buckley, Roy Orbison, and Richard Thompson. Old school folk,
jazz and rock'n'roll combine in a potent, understated mix that warrants
repeated listening.

Order
the 12" vinyl LP directly from the band's
Bandcamp
site.
Originally
scheduled for a 2005 release on Anyway Records, Orchestraville broke up
before they could release "Poison Berries." Their final record
finds them tossing aside the quirky rhythmic motifs of their previous
work for a more conventional rock format. The addition of keyboardist
Parker Paul (Curious Digit, solo artist) inject the songs with a classic
rock and roll (not Classic Rock) feel.
The
12" vinyl LP became available in September 2010, and the band has
reunited for a few shows to celebrate its release.

The
Beatdowns follow-up their free digital single (see Old 3C 29, below) with
an honest-to-god, real-life slab of 7" vinyl. Produced
by Bobby Sutliff, recorded by Adam Smith at Columbus Discount, mastered
by Jon Chinn, harmonies by New Gentle Soul -- this is a real class-act
production. Featuring the ace songwriring of Matt Benz, you'll want to
hear "Sights & Sound," "Baby! Let's Get Lost,"
and "What Did I Love About Her?" over and over again.

3C 36 | Burn Barrel, Reviled!
CD
|
10 songs

Originally
released on Columbus'
Heathen Records in 1999, Reviled features the songs of J.P. Olsen (Beetkeepers,
Great State of Ohio) backed by long-time friends and collaborators the
Haynes Boys (Tim Easton, Jovan Karcic, Phillip Park, Matt Surgeson) and
other Columbus legends Derek DiCenzo, Teresa Fyffe, Marcy Mays, and Matt
Newman. Bar-room roots-rock doesn't get much better than this. You might
want to get hip to this now, in case you missed it the first time around.

We're
going back all the way to 1988 for this release by
Beetkeepers, originally issued on 12" vinyl by seminal Columbus indie
label No Other. Once again featuring the songs of J.P.
Olsen, but this time with somewhat sparser instrumental
backing provided by John Messersmith and Stephen Perakis. Alternately
spunky and achingly melancholy, Beetkeepers provides ample listening pleasures.

If
you haven't heard Cruel, Cruel Moon's classic Still Life CD (below), you
should fix that right now -- and while you're at
it, you should definitely give a listen to this equally great collection
of songs from the same period. Even more immediate and raw than previous
efforts, Refrigerator hearkens back to Television, Patti Smith, and the
Velvets, by way of Akron/Kent. Cruel, Cruel Moon carry the torch for what
"punk" was always meant to be -- smart and in your face.

Those
who've enjoyed the alternative Americana of Stark Folk's
self-titled debut (below) may be a bit shocked by the rockin' quality
of Well Oiled, which channels a 13th Floor Elevators meets Zuma-era Neil
Young vibe. Not content to do more of the same, Stark Folk Band has turned
up the volume and distorted the guitars, but Brady
Burkett's quality songwriting still shines
through. As with their first release, look for this to appear on limited-edition
vinyl.

Another
free digital-download release hosted by the most-excellent PatRadio

Columbus Community Festival that took place at the former open-lot near
Goodale Park. It was recorded back then on a hand-held tape player, and
was recently EQ'd by the legendary Mike Rep for maximum sonic goodness.

|
The
Beatdowns, five more or less well-respected gentlemen, are a Columbus,
Ohio-based band that occasionally ventures out to play their uncertain
brand of power pop -- you know, of the kind heard ever since
one Mr. P. Townshend plugged in his Rickenbacker and hit a suspended D
chord. With this, their new free single via PatRadio,
the Beatdowns, like all good bands of their ilk and kind, attempt to conjure
up the A.M. sound of the distant transistor radio past, dialing
in somewhere between 1965 and 1972. That they manage to do that sans suits
and Beatle boots is just frosting on the beater.

Great Plains reunited in 2008 to play a series of shows in Hoboken, Brooklyn,

After a series of recordings under
the name A Landscape Yesterday, longtime collaborators Brady Burkett and
Ryan Shaffer head off in a more roots-oriented direction -- think early
Palace Brothers meets current-day Moviola. This release also marks Old
3Cs first limited-edition vinyl issue, so you collector-types might want
to jump on this quickly. Did we mention how good it is? Well, we should
have.

3C 26 | Ego Summit, The Room Isn't Big Enough CDR
| 14 songs | $12 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Columbus, Ohio indie-rock supergroup
Ego Summit convened in 1997 to make this one record. Originally released
on vinyl in a small quantity, it's now a bona fide collector's item. Featuring
songs by Ron House (Twisted Shouts, Moses Carryout, Great Plains, Thomas
Jefferson Slave Apartments), Don Howland (Twisted Shouts, Great Plains,
Gibson Brothers, Bassholes), Tommy Jay (Twisted Shouts, True Believers,
Quotas), Mike Rep (Twisted Shouts, True Believers, Quotas), and Jim Shepard
(Vertical Slit, Phantom Limb, V3), the boys managed to fit their considerable
egos into a too-small room to produce this classic slice of home-made
goodness.
|
3C 25 | Cruel, Cruel Moon, Still Life CD
| 10 songs | $12 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Arkon/Kent-Ohio band Cruel, Cruel
Moon made one of the best and most criminally-overlooked CDs of the 1990s.
Equal parts Velvets/Human Switchboard/Yo La Tengo, they produced an intelligent
and melodic rock sound that few others have matched since. Enjoy this
classic album in all its glory, and stay tuned for a forthcoming release
of previously unheard material.

| 3C 24 | Vena Cava, self-titled CDR
| 9 songs | $12 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Columbus' own Vena Cava make their debut with this nice
set of melodic noise rock. Previously self-released in 2005, we're proud
to give it the Old 3C mail order + digital download treatment. Some may
say that their inclusion has everything to do with one of the band members
sharing a last name with the guy who runs the label. Hey, blood is thicker
than water -- but rock breaks scissors, punk.

Mike Hagen, the artist formerly known as Fungobat, returns
with this collection of mostly studio recordings to complement his previously
well-received collection of four track recordings (see 3C 12 below). We're
not sure why Mike abandoned the Fungobat name this time -- maybe it had
to do with iTunes listing it as "Fungboat"? Anyhow, if you liked
Vol.1, you'll definitely like this one too.

Twisted Shouts) solo CD documenting a friends mental and marriage
issues (dont worry, it all worked out in the end). Ably assisted
by a TJSA band-mate Bob Petric, and the boys from long-time Columbus acts
Moviola and the Black Swans. Originally released by the Moses Carryout
label in 2002.

As advertised, Ron House, from his early days with pre-Great

on the Spare Me label in 1999. Some of you may also remember these tracks
appearing on the Blind Boy In The Backseat cassette release
by Columbus label Old Age in the 80s.

Columbus, Ohio legends Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments,

these songs only sound better as time goes by. Originally released by
Bobby Pollards Rockathon label in 2000.
|

Some
of you may remember this release as a cassette from 1985. If so, you're
pretty freakin' old. If not, then it's new to you. The original tracks
are here, except for a few things that ended up on Cornflakes. But we've
made it up to you by adding some other previously-unavailable-in-the-digital-world
material. Are the Great Plains vaults now officially emptied? Hard to
say -- better stay tuned to see.

Absolutely
fantastic songs from Chicago's Mike Ritt (Peck of Snide, Shades of Al
Davis, Midwest Music Liquidators), ably-assisted by his pals from the
Young Fresh Fellows and other Seattle indie legends. Recorded at Egg (owned
by Conrad Uno) in a sort of indie-rock recording party experience. Originally
released on Mike's Mallard Pointe label in 2003, it's now available here
for your mail order and download pleasure.

3C 14 | Shades of Al Davis, The Midwest Peace Talks Vols.1, 2 CD
| 11 songs | $12 us (mail order) | $8

The
second Shades of Al release, which takes a slightly different approach
than the first (see 3C 08 below). Namely, Mike Ritt and Alan Spindle contribute
most of the songs, with original main Shades-man Steve Lindstrom taking
somewhat of a back seat. It's equally great, but in a more home-made indie-pop
sort of way. Like the New Normal release, it was also released on the
Mallard Pointe label
(back in 1999). Yep, you'll need this one too.

Who's Who of musical pals including members of Log, Moviola, Shades of
Al Davis, the New Normal, Great Plains, Househearts, Peck of Snide, Vena
Cava, and New Basics Brass Band. Liberals everywhere should listen to
this as they celebrate the Democrats' huge wins in the mid-term 2006 elections.

Four-track recordings from the late '70s to the late '80s, by Cincinnati
popster and songwriter Mike Hagen. Some classic songs that predate the
whole lo-fi thing from the early '90s by a long shot. Look out for Vol.2,
which will feature a full-load of studio recordings. Not sure when that's
coming out, but we'll let you know -- actually it is out now, so see 3C
23 above for more info.

3C 11 | Log, Logjammin' CDR

Log's "Odds and Sods" if you will. Features re-recordings
of early material, a lost track rescued from an obscure compilation, some
live and studio covers, and alternate versions of some Log Almighty tracks.
This one closes the book on Log's ten-plus year run. Fans of the Big Lebowski
will enjoy the title and cover art.

Some of you may have been lucky enough to hear this on cassette back in

pleasure. This set catches the Plains in great form as part of their "Let
Dick Clark Work Out All the Details" tour in the spring of 1985.

The first
solo release by Log's frontman, originally released in 1997 by the TMIV
label. Repackaged

order) | $8
us (digital) |
Early 90s band featuring Steve Lindstrom + Mike Ritt (Shades of Al Davis),
Paul Nini (Log,
etc.) and Jerry Schweigert. Country-tinged indie rock, well-liked in Sweden,
for whatever reason. Also originally
released in 1997 by the TMIV label, and repackaged and re-released by
Old 3C.

order) | $8
us (digital) |
Material that wasn't included on the 2-CD set (below). Includes alternate
studio + live versions of
familiar songs, previously unheard originals, and obscure covers.
For no particularly
good reason, we've made this available for order again. We think Ron forgot
why he wanted us to sell only fifty. Anyhow, order at will.

| 12 songs | $12 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
Melodic keyboard drones
and slow pop goodness from this Log frontman and former member

bliss.

The well-received 2-CD retrospective set that includes almost all of the
songs from the 1980s
Homestead (US) and Shadowline (NL) releases of these Columbus, Ohio legends.
Now available as a
2-CDR set, though some copies of the original pressing might still be
found on-line (good
luck with that).
| 3C 01
| Log, Auto Fire Life CD
| 14 songs | $12 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
Critically-acclaimed, melodic indie-rock from this long-running (1993-2004)
Columbus, Ohio band, which included former
members of Great Plains and Naked Skinnies. A few copies of the 1999 pressing
of this release are
still available, so order away to hear Log's satisfying, no-frills, rollicking
songs.

About Old 3C's releases:
Old 3C's early releases
were manufactured CDs, but since then we've also concentrated on
made-to-order and small-edition
CDR and vinyl runs. Either way, you're going to find things
here that you won't see too many other places, and at good prices too.
We'll be doing more
of all types of physical releases, so please check back now and again
for updates. As
well, please see our digital retail partners listed in the Streaming Jukebox,
where you can get your download on. Finally, please note that we're now
also offering all of our releases as digital downloads direct from Old
3C -- see the Order page for details. |
