Went to shopping plaza in a Latino district of LA couple day ago, and sure enough, there was a clown performing.

i see 'em south of the border too - performing for tips (juggling, acrobatics, etc.) The clown thing is strong with Mexico.

That was nice. Was the vinyl a private-press, or was it thru a label? Sounds like it could have been pretty commercial.

I once said to Rich IW that it was likely Arb that had the oddest selections on WFMU, but he said it was Miss Mei, who I seldom hear due to time shift.
