Originally released at home as a Hallogallo tape. From Kai: “The soundtrack to my 18th summer riding a Chinese Taotao 50cc scooter around Taqueria Moran... Recorded on a Tascam Porta One in the old concrete Stulogulo with an imaginary band of Men in Green Striped Trousers. The original Sharp Pins garagepopspew sound in all of its crustiness and yelping...Now my teenage dream is yours.”
