about

Seminal record from the depths of the West Bank of New Orleans.
Originally recorded in 1999 >>> 2001.
Newly released, remastered and on vinyl for the first time ever.

>>>

"One of the reasons I started a record label was the hope of pressing this music on vinyl. I can't express enough how influential these recordings are and am thrilled more people will get to hear it."
>>> Patrick Bailey >>> Strange Daisy Records

>>>

"Without a doubt, this record and these musicians have heavily inspired the last 20 years of New Orleans' DIY music scene. Quite a feat if you consider that influence rode solely on the back of burned CDs and bootleg cassettes until now. A cherished rite of passage you had to peel back a few layers of trust to access. It's an honor to pass the torch once more."
>>> Daniel "D-Ray" Ray >>> Community Records

>>>

"This record and these musicians were and are a window into a more exciting world for me. Growing up on the West Bank my biggest dream was to get out and travel the country playing music. Considering these folks are so talented and lived down the street, their recordings became a road map for me out of suburbia. A beacon that was the soundtrack to the interstates that took Fatter Than Albert on tours from 2005 to 2010.

It's no coincidence that our DIY label is called 'Community' Records. It's an honor and a joy to be able to re-present these recordings with Strange Daisy.
>>> Greg Rodrigue >>> Community Records

"Looking back, no single band was more of a springboard for my falling more in love with both recording and music-related photagraphy than Community. The timing was perfect where I had four of my best friends in my favorite new local band, and we were all exploring new creative paths simultaneously that merged. They were maturing musically and changing their sound over previous bands, and I was gaining more confidence twisting knobs, wanted to experiment more, and was finding my way with film cameras. We did everything together: sharing experimental ideas, modifying (some would call it destroying) instruments and gear for an effect, all of us being on the mixing board, and even changing the engine and transmission in their van. At the time I had mostly mediocre gear, as one will hear one of the drum overhead mics randomly cutting out, but we still managed to capture something together that i'm still extremely proud of over 20 years later. It was truly one of the best and most important times of my life.
