I didn’t know Reg Bloor was running a Kickstarter campaign to fund an important Glenn Branca archival recording with Thurston Moore and Lee Ranaldo in the band until Robert Fripp (!!) shared the news on Facebook. Get yourself a piece of the action here. www.kickstarter.com/projects/reg...
Release of Glenn Branca's Symphony No. 4 (Physics)
Much anticipated release of a long lost recording.
