Music Only I Care About is the place to go for anything weird, forgotten and fun: Demos, Private Press, Outsider oddities and more! A little bit of odd, and a little bit of even odder, brought to you by a bespectacled bird with a lisp and a love for archiving.

I live in Elmhurst NY. Have only been here since 1998. It is a very diverse community but I am very curious about Martin Mechanic. Quick search and I find nothing except a couple of references to his tape. Gotta focus on work now but will look more later.

Ray Bumatai is the voice of my childhood. He played the role of Tito Makhani in the cartoon Rocket Power from 1999-2004. I only recently discovered he released an album that got rave reviews, sadly there are no full copies online so I've tried reaching out to his family. No luck yet!

Gene is a friend and a former collaborator of one of my new favourite artists, Jimmie R. Vestal. Gene graciously sent me a box of documents and other cool things Jimmie sent him back in 1998, plus a few CDRs of his own solo music, which is mostly religious stuff. Lots of fun!

The next song up is one of the tracks him and Jimmie collaborated on when hey had a band called The Soul Brothers.

One String Sam has only 3 known songs, unfortunately. Very very little is known about him, and there's no record of when he passed away. After the mid 70s there's nothing.
