no capital letters, no punctuation. It took me so many reads of the first post to figure out what was being said/asked.

I wish they had made that double piano album. Seriously.

yes! thank you! i always thought he played bass on that even worse 7" ("One Night Stand") but i could have been mistaken (i'm not even sure if that's what's referred to in the initial post, it's the only 'even worse' i know outside of weird al...).

Thurston's only appearance on vinyl with Even Worse is on the b-side of the 45 "Leaving/One Night Stand." I played bass in the line-up of Even Worse that included Thurston...Thurston is credited on "Mouse or Rat," and in fact his picture is on the insert of the 45 (it was taken at the first gig we played at Tramps, in June of '82), but he doesn't actually play on that 45. He does, however, play on "One Night Stand," a song written by Thurston and Even Worse vocalist Kenny Temkin that was recorded live at Great Gildersleeves (don't ask me the date, but I remember we were opening for Minor Threat). Because Thurston's scheduling conflicts with the Glenn Branca Ensemble meant that he couldn't perform at every Even Worse show (in '82 and '83), we had a regular 'sub' guitarist, a fellow named Steve Waxman. Occasionally, we would play gigs with both Steve and Thurston. Following the break-up of that line-up of Even Worse (Jack Rabid - drums, Tim Sommer - bass, Thurston Moore - guitar, Steve Waxman - guitar, Kenny Temkin -- vocals), I joined the Glenn Branca Ensemble (largely on the recommendation of Thurston and Lee Ranaldo), and later formed my own band, Hugo Largo. Steve Waxman, who as stated subbed for Thurston and sometimes played alongside him, became the head of publicity for Warner Music Canada. I hope I have shed some light on an obscure footnote in SY history, and I will be happy to add more details if there is any interest! |

I seem to remember seeing Hugo Largo at the old Knitting Factory on Houston ST. |

thanks for the insight Timmy Noise. Any more details would be appreciated (I know I speak for more than myself).

I finally had some time to play this last night. the aside, "Leaving" is frankly horrible. Its some kind of MOR tempo'ed song. Thurston's "new song" "One Night Stand" was recorded live on a handheld recorder, the first half is guitar playing, improv? like maybe Thurston was playing around while the band was getting ready, (or was it an intro like for the Gang of Four's anthrax? ), and the song kicks in with a classic ny/boston hardcore slow crawl, when the punk would plod slowly around in a circle making fierce faces until the the drummer clicks and then the band launches into some blazing speedcore and the punks on the floor would explode into a chaotic free for all slamdance. When the band is playing, its mostly drums and vocals, I think if it had been recorded properly Even Worse would have been one of those hardcore bands with a distinctive guitar sound, like FOD, but here you just get a blurry polaroid.
