E-13

There's no reason for me to talk about E-13 since their history is summed up pretty well right here. I'll just mention that as far as I know this is one of 2 7"s they released along with a track on the Drinking Is Great compilation that you can hear compliments of the Something I Learned Today mp3 blog. This copy comes from a bootleg I forgot I even had in which the song titles were: 1) Wrong and 2) Not even in the right order (c'mon punks, I mean seriously!). I think I've pieced it together correctly and provided you with a cropped scan that came from a copy for sale online if you're one of those punks who've struck it rich. Here's 1984's No Mercy For Swine-
Ode To A Motorhome
Misguided Missile Mouth
Eddie
Sport Pack
Humor Demons
Free The Cheese
Swizzle Stick
Clowns Are Experts At Making Us Laugh

Great, great stuff, I had never heard any of this. Yet another one of those awesome bands that layed outside the more well known circle. Thanks for the post.
Thanks so much for posting these tracks. I was one of the original members of E-13, I co-wrote most of these compositions (credit appropriated by Lyons) yet i've never had a copy of the record. What a gas to be downloading my own stuff, twenty years later. Keep 'em flying!
You must be amazed at the price your work fetches these days! Back in the day I would have thought someone was crazy for paying $250 for anything.
...well, uh, i wasn't actually aware of that. All can say in reply are the immortal words of Poison Idea: "record collectors are pretentious assholes." ;-)
Thanks for posting this stuff, I have a worn out cassette of these tunes and appreciate the cleaner versions!
Thanks!

Hey, I remember these tracks being good, but they don't work anymore. What gives?!
Hey anonymous,
I'm sure I know you. I was good friends with the original E-13. I don't know what possessed me today to look up this bit of my history - more than 20 years ago! A lot of great memories from that time. A hint of who I am... Girl - took a lot of photos. I have a lot of photos of E-13. cheers
