Yeah, Jandek was one of Spin Magazine's 10 best artists of the 80's.
Could never find any of his stuff though....

Seriously? That is truly weird? When was that? Kurt Cobain was a big
supporter, though he once said that most people who say they like Jandek are
faking it. It's strange that he (Jandek, not KC) has become so notorious
lately. His new records are coming out on CD, so you could probably find them
at any small record stores in your area. You can also get a catalogue from:

Corwood Industries
PO Box 15375
Houston, TX 77220

Most of his LPs are only $6 ppd. Who knows what is still in print though. If
you like vinyl, I recommend "Twelfth Apostle" or "Lost Cause". There all
amazing though. That is if you consider atonal strumming and tone-deaf
falsetto singing "amazing." He's sort of like a scary Daniel Johnston,
without the Casio Keyboard.
