| | Half Japanese Bone Head CD Half Japanese Discography of CDs
After nearly two decades of recording, Half Japanese released this 20 song 1997 album featuring the stable '90s line-up of Jad Fair, John Sluggett and Gilles Rieder, along with a couple guest guitarists. All of Jad's usual themes are here, from the mock-horror of "Monkey Hand" and the appearance of Frankenstein in "Sometimes" to the wide-eyed romanticism of "A Night Like This," "Song Of Joy," and "Brand New Sky."
There are also some furious grooves, including the aforementioned "Sometimes" (positively, head-spinningly hypnotic, and guitarist Sluggett takes a turn on the piano which will stop you in your tracks) and "Zombie Eye" (which would be a good song to play anyone who thinks Half Japanese is overly primitive and noisy). The sound quality is sharp, capturing the live feeling of Jad and the band, while also heightening the definition of each instrument.
Recorded at Studio Des Usines, Neuchatel, Switzerland.
Half Japanese includes: Jad Fair (vocals).
Option (7-8/97, pp.109-110) - "Jad Fair is in fine form on this album....the disc includes any number of real songs that could become staples of the Hlf Jap canon...."Song Of Joy" may in fact be one of the most impassioned love songs ever..." Half Japanese Bone Head Songs Bone Head Review

Bone Head
$15.19 With over two decades of songwriting under his belt and 3 records, Doug Ploss continues to crank out his own unique brand of Americana music. Saying it like it's never been said before is a challenge for songwriters, but Doug somehow comes up with lyrical content and phrasing that always seem to have a fresh attitude. Doug and wife Tricia have performed in many different venues and churches over the years, bringing their very real and raw sound to the table. Doug's "TAR CITY" album, released in 2004, makes a mockery of empty religion and and strikes a cord within the European radio market. Many cuts from "TAR CITY" found their way into over 100 euro radio stations with "Touched By Silver" making it onto the worldwide charts. The single "Tar City" was also picked up by PBS syndicated program, Dragonfly TV. At about the same time, the song "The Valley" off of Doug's first debut CD, Backporch Revival was discovered by White Dove Radio. The song stayed on the top 10 chart for several weeks, finally making it to the number one spot on the world's largest Christian internet radio station. With that success, Doug decided to give the song a heavy makeover to be released on his current album. Doug continues to crank out the records...his ...
