About Me


Posh Boy Records founder Robbie Fields writes: The 391 recordings were recorded in 1979 and originally released on the ill fated "Siren" LP, PBS 103, sometime in late 1979/early 1980. Also on the album were Red Cross and Utah's Spittin' Teeth. The disco sleeve pictured was designed by Nick Taggart, a professor at CalArts and the design completely missed the boat on what was about to happen in 1981. I doubt if more than 10 of those 391 records were ever sold...the main purpose was to service college radio. In any event, by April 1980 Jeff Olener the former Nun in the band had reunited with his former bandmates to record the posthumous Nuns LP. Jackson stayed in L.A. and was playing with Rik L Rik. Brett Valory went back to the Bay Area. And I was flat broke and went to live for some months at my mother's in London.......For more on 391 click here .
