This, spinART's initial release, fulfilled a very useful function when it appeared. The U.S. indie-pop revolution had been underway for a couple of years, but at that point the bands were still mainly represented (if at all) by small pressings of seven-inch singles or cassettes. This CD collects good songs already released on 45's by other labels, unreleased tracks by established bands and a few debuts.
