2 LP Single sleeve, download card included. In 1974 Jad Fair, along with his brother David, co-founded the lo-fi alternative rock group Half Japanese. Over the ensuing three decades, Half Japanese released fourteen albums (which are all due to be reissued on Fire Records throughout 2013), and in the process, attracted a solid base of fans passionate about the band's pure, unbridled enthusiasm for rock and roll. Half Gentlemen/Not Beasts is a collection of the Fair brothers earliest home recordings, originally released as a homemade three LP box set. These stretch their DIY, lo-fi ethos to the limits featuring sound experiments cobbled together from guitar noise, electronics and odd effects, whilst throwing in some barely recognizable covers (such as tracks by The Temptations, Buddy Holly and Bob Dylan). 'Half Gentlemen / Not Beasts' is now available as a 2LP package. Disc 1 1. No Direct Line From My Brain To My Heart 2. 10th Ave. Freezeout 3. Ta Sheri Ta Ta 4. My Girlfriend Lives Like A Beatnik 5.
