Really interesting writeup....links to the original Mike Sniper blog
entry, which should be read in full.  He gets it...even though it
should be noted that it took a while for the label to find its
aesthetic...early CT with Grass Widow/The Beets/Fresh and Only/Thee Oh
Sees (as good as these groups were) wasn't really in keeping with what
I perceived was their image, though I really thought the Mayfair Set
release which was dual-labelled (CT and Woodsist) was the coolest
idea...reminded me of a stretch of road with multiple highway signs or
a streamer trunk with multiple shipping labels...

I've also digitized quite a bit of CT vinyl (lossless) so will be
putting up links tonight/tomorrow for you guys to sample/enjoy.
