Talk:Limp Records

Run-out grooves
If anyone could please check these records (all 7"s) for run-out groove messages, that'd be great: Tina Peel, Nightman, Killer Bees, The Dark, Black Market Baby, Minor Threat, Stiff All-Stars I've checked the rest of the catalog, but I don't own these. Closenplay 20:20, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Limp Etchings 1
Here are matrix etchings for all the Limp 7"s except for the Nurses' Hearts reissue test press, the Reind Dears first rejected test press, the Nightman EP, and the Tina Peel EP. I forgot to grab them.  I'll do them when I do the LPs.  All these were cut at NRP unless noted.

The Nurses' DYF 7" and the Slickees' Brain 7" (both released on Dacoit) were both bankrolled by Skip after Limp went under. I can get you the etchings if you're interested.

Tommy Keene's Back To Zero 7" may have a Limp etching as well. I don't have that one, unfortunately.

D.CEATS

a - it shoulda been mono!

b - it shoulda been mono!

DARK

a - nothing (just the matrix number, speed, and cutting engineer's initials)

b - nothing (just the matrix number, speed, and cutting engineer's initials)

KILLER BEES

a - nothing (just the matrix number and cutting engineer's initials)

b - nothing (just the matrix number and cutting engineer's initials)

BLACK MARKET BABY

a - remember snitch!

b - who's snitch?

Snitch was Boyd Farrell and Paul Cleary's band pre-Black Market Baby. Skip Groff wrote an unkind (but accurate) review of the band for Descenes, DC's biggest punk paper.

MINOR THREAT

a - hi henry. hi lyle. never forget

b - there's no place like home

Henry is Henry Rollins, who was living in LA with Black Flag. Lyle is Lyle Preslar, who was in Chicago going to NWU.

SLICKEE BOYS' MERSEY EP

a - nothing (just the matrix numbers)

b - nothing (just the matrix numbers)

cut by WEC (can't remember what the plant's name is or where they are--I have it written down somewhere)

SLICKEE BOYS' THIRD EP

a - slickee delic

b - we try to play it you try to like it

NURSES' RUNNING AROUND 45

a - read discords

Discords was Howard Wuelfing's zine. Howard sang and played bass in the Nurses.

RAZZ'S YOU CAN RUN 45

a - nothing (just the matrix number and cutting engineer's initials)

b - nothing (just the matrix number and cutting engineer's initials)

RAZZ'S AIRTIME EP

SHIRKERS

a - nothing (just the matrix numbers and "2.99")

cut at a&r in dallas

I think 2.99 was cut by the plant, not at anyone's request. It wasn't the price of the record.

REIND DEARS (ACCEPTED)

b - nothing (just the matrix number and cutting engineer's initials)

STIFF ALL STARS

Limp Matrix Numbers 2
I scanned in the Nightman Limp Logo and uploaded it to 30underdc.com/wiki/. I have the Slickees Live At Last LP (and the CD), so if you need scans of it for the wikipedia page, I can provide them. I'll contribute more to the Slickees discography soon.

Here are the rest of the Limp matrices, except for Connected, which I know you have up there.

REIND DEARS REJECTED TEST PRESS

b - nothing (just the matrix numbers and cutting engineer's initials)

NIGHTMAN EP

a - nothing (just the matrix numbers and cutting engineer's initials)

b - nothing (just the matrix numbers and cutting engineer's initials)

30 OVER DC LP

a - nothing (just the matrix numbers and cutting engineer's initials)

b - nothing (just the matrix numbers and cutting engineer's initials)

BEST OF LIMP LP (REJECTED TEST PRESS)

a - nothing (just the matrix numbers and cutting engineer's initials)

BEST OF LIMP LP

a - nothing (just the matrix numbers and cutting engineer's initials)

b - nothing (just the matrix numbers and cutting engineer's initials)

(AFRIKA) KORPS LP

a - limp 1002 kk823-A-sexual

b - limp 1002-b  kk-823-Bi-sexual

On the A side "1002" is subscript and "kk" is superscript above it. On the B side they're normally etched, but quite aways apart. KK is short for Kleen Kut, which was someone in the Korps' vanity label (there was at least one other release on Kleen Kut, but I can't remember who it was).

NIGHTMAN LP

a - nothing (just the matrix numbers, catalog numbers, and cutting engineer's initials)

b - nothing (just the matrix numbers, catalog numbers, and cutting engineer's initials)

SLICKEE BOYS LP

a - nothing (just the two sets of matrix numbers)

b - nothing (just the two sets of matrix numbers)

There are two different sets of matrix numbers here because the Limp reissue used the same metal parts as the original Dacoit version and NRP added their own matrix to it. by 68.48.112.97 (Talk) 00:29, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Very cool, thanks! I think that only the ones with messages should be listed in the article, and I'm not counting the Korps album because "a-sexual" and "bi-sexual" are what the two sides of the album are labeled as. Thanks again for the assist! Closenplay 20:43, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

The Shirkers
The Shirkers (Thomas Kane; Guitar, Liz DuMais; Guitar, Libby Hatch; Bass, Steve Bailer; Vocals, Jeff Zang; Drums) cut "Drunk & Disorderly" and "Suicide" in early July of 1978. The record was produced by Howard Weulfing, who at the time was in the Slickee Boys. The A side became something of an underground Punk anthem, and is fondly remembered.
