Anagrams Roll Call / Springs

A cool 7” record by

Anagrams - two

who like making music together. Jeff and JD Walsh play music that is as catchy as it is unclassifiable. Snag a ram with Anagrams!

Early work - this 1992

CD has the only issued tracks by Atlanta’s legendary Bazooka Ants, two tracks with pianist Michael J. Smith, and an overdubbed solo version of Lennie Tristano’s “Turkish Mambo.”
