Up and through 2023 the monthly sections of all three of our websites (babysue.com, LMNOP.com & dONW7.com) have been the same. But this year that has changed. The monthly sections on babysue.com and LMNOP.com are now different.

June - December 2023

This year many hours were spent digitizing a huge amount of material from ancient reel-to-reel tapes and prehistoric cassettes. The amount of unreleased and unheard material is overwhelming, but I hope to release some of it in the near future. In addition to all the News, Views & Perspectives monthly sections on the website(s), the following comic strips were also produced and uploaded: #448, #449, #450, #451, #452, #453, #454, #455, #456, #457, #458, #459, #460, #461, #462, #463, #464, #465 (created but not uploaded because it might offend), #466 and #467.

January - March 2023

LMNO3 Deluxe CD has now been released on the Think Like A Key Music label (February 24, 2023). In addition to the recordings that were on the original album, the deluxe version includes six bonus tracks. My album is part of the label's new DIY series featuring outstanding DIY artists R. Stevie Moore, Brian Bordello, Fran Ashcroft, Hawk Percival and Patto. PDFs are now up for babysue, Volume 3, Issue 3 from 1992 and Volume 3, Issue 4 from 1993. Included in these issues is a new colorized version of my Fireman Joe comic strip story as well as an interview with Dennis Worden. All three of my websites are now loading faster than ever before (LMNOP.com, dONW7.com, babysue.com), thanks to a fantastic new web host. During the changeover, there were a few days in December 2022 when emails did not come through. So if anyone did not receive a reply, this is why. Things are back on track now and everything is fully functional. Coming soon on the babysue website is an in-depth interview with Roger Houdaille of the band Ex Norwegian.

December 2022

My (almost) long lost album LMNO3 will be released on CD by the label Think Like A Key Music in February 2023. It will include a bunch of bonus tracks and, thus, will be entitled LMNO3 Deluxe. The album was originally only issued on independent cassettes that were duplicated in my living room in 1985. It was never released on CD or LP and would have been lost forever if it were not for musicologist Jay Dravenstadt who provided me with tracks that he digitized from one of those obscure cassettes. The songs on the upcoming CD were digitized from the original half track reel-to-reel tapes and mastered by Roger Houdaille. I have also successfully digitized a solo album recorded in 1981 that was never officially released at all. These very early multitrack recordings will be leaked out in the months/years that lie ahead.

October / November 2022

New article up entitled How To Stay Famous For A Long Long Time. All of my peculiar underground recordings from the 1970s have now been digitized. You can read more about this cassette digitization project which includes some newly unearthed rough mixes from the elemen opee elpee album here. There are also new poems on that page. The babysue Cap is now available. babysue, Volume 3, Issue 2 (from 1992) is now online (first time on the internet). View PDFs here. This one features Remembering The Carpenters, Harmful Insects and Deborah's Turkey Sandwich. Note: Opinions expressed are not necessarily the author's opinions.

August / September 2022

I am now in the process of un-burying LMNO4, an album of songs I recorded in 1986 - 1987. It was originally intended to be a cassette-only release. For a variety of reasons, the album was never released. These obscure digitized LMNO4 tracks will most likely be released at some point. New story up entitled Polio's Big Discovery. babysue, Volume 3, Issue 1 (from 1991) is now online (first time on the internet). View PDFs here. This one features the Serial Killer Quiz. Note: Opinions expressed are not necessarily the author's opinions.

February 2022

PDFs of the first two babysue mini-magazines/comic books are now online here (this is the first time these have ever been on the internet). Additional PDFs will be added as time allows. Note: Opinions expressed are not necessarily the author's opinions. In other news...this News page was added where you can find out the latest things happening in my confusing little underground world. In the past, I tended to do things 'in the dark' most of the time. But this year I decided that is not such a good thing...so from now on I'll be letting you know what's happening when it's happening.

2021

The album whatNOP was released that features sixteen new songs. Four videos were produced from songs on the album (links to these are on the whatNOP page). Lyrics were uploaded for all releases (links can be found on the Discography page). Lyrics are also on individual song pages on bandcamp. Prices for CDs & CD-Rs dropped to $7.00 each (with free shipping worldwide) on bandcamp. Album downloads dropped to $3.00 each. Settings were changed on the bandcamp page so you can freely stream everything there without that annoying 'two song limit' thing happening.
