Monitor


Came across this great clip on You Tube this morning and it got me thinking. Remember that big'ol spread we did on Monitor back in the '90s? Well, I pulled one of those out and it's a pretty fascinating history (lots of interviewing done by Slovenly/Red Krayola/Encounter Group guitar wiz Tom Watson) with tons of great pictures and flyers reprinted. For thos of you who can't remember, Monitor sprung from the San Fernando Valley in the late '70s, hung out with Jeffrey Vallance, made an incredible LP on their own label World Imitation, AND "discovered" the Meat Puppets. We still have a few copies left of this Issue 11 for $10 ppd. Write to ggpmag(at)gmail(dot)com for info on how.
