Crawdaddy republishes a 1987 article about Husker Du and The ‘Mats

Okay, so this is a review of the new Tobias Wolff short story collection, and I link to it for two reasons:
1.) Tobias Wolff is brilliant and you should read him
2.) The review likens remembering the first time you read Tobias Wolff (Vodo’s Beginning Fiction class 2003) to the first time you heard the ‘Mats (The Camaraderie’s jukebox 1994 or 1995)

    Jimdracula if you have a specific problem with the new design, I might be able to fix it or explain why, but i can’t really fix ‘not diggin’ you know?

    Thank you Jay, I like this one better too. It seems a little cleaner. I’d have liked something white and clean, but I asked awhile back and people really liked the dark, so I kept it.
