Why, when I hear Sharkey’s Day do I think of Wm Burroughs? Is there a connection or is it just my brain short circuiting?

1984 was the year I discovered WFMU. With barely enough signal to be received in upper Manhattan, on a day where the westerly wind was generous, my prayers for what had been my mental soundtrack were ethereally answered.

Seems that was reissued on Exit Stencil Recordings on Bandcamp in 2020.

Almost all of the albums I'm playing today have been reissued -- but as far as I know, none of Unrest Work & Play's stuff has ever been reissued. Somebody should right that wrong.
