DROP 58

Tiny picture or what? It's from the Bus Stop gallery page. Allen Clapp is a relatively new aquaintance for me, but is quickly becoming one of my favourite artists. Before he was just a name on the Bus Stop website, and there are plenty of them left to discover. He started recording on his own, then formed Allen Clapp & His Orchestra and eventually The Orange Peels who are set to play the NYC Popfest this year. This is one of his older songs and it came out on a Bus Stop 7" in 1992. It's also included on the new compilation of stuff from his "four-tracking heyday" called Something Strange Happens, which is a must-buy if there ever was one! Check Skatterbrain in the link list, where there are two more songs in a recent post. And there are some great podcasts on The Orange Peels website.
