    Jaycat... that feels derivative of the Velvet Underground. Orenda Fink's stuff reminded me of a lot of Suzanne Vega's stuff that I really like.

    The Russian Group Winnie Puh wins that.

    Ah, The Shaggs. Pretty, um, interesting results from three sisters who'd never shown interest in music before their father bought them instruments, upon advice a palm-reader gave their grandmother.

    Apparently there is a tribute album; so sayeth the wiki:

    Better Than The Beatles: A Tribute to The Shaggs is a tribute album consisting of cover versions of songs by The Shaggs from their only album, Philosophy of the World. The title comes from a Frank Zappa interview, in which Zappa refers to The Shaggs as the "3rd best band" of all-time, calling them "better than The Beatles."|[citation needed]

    Finders Keepers, my duo with the astoundingly talented and versatile Patti Rothberg. Our EP is finally done, and available! PM me, while they last!

    Two bands were better than the Shaggs? I wonder who they were.

    This was before Walter Havel, so it couldn't have been him.

    The album cover reminds me somewhat of the cover for Appassionáto by Peter Xifaras

    Peter's website looks like it dates to the era of MySpace!
