Description

Jad Fair & Yo La Tengo - Strange But True [Green]In the '90s, Jad Fair had five favorite bands and songwriters: Daniel Johnston, The Pastels, Sonic Youth, Teenage Fanclub, and Yo La Tengo. It's a good list, sure, but what's most remarkable about it is that, in the course of a dozen years or so, Fair made music with all of them in one form or another. Jad Fair has been prolific for half a century now, long before the Internet could create a simultaneous and seemingly eternal archive of everything

In the '90s, Jad Fair had five favorite bands and songwriters: Daniel Johnston, The Pastels, Sonic Youth, Teenage Fanclub, and Yo La Tengo. It's a good list, sure, but what's most remarkable about it is that, in the course of a dozen years or so, Fair made music with all of them in one form or another.

Jad Fair has been prolific for half a century now, long before the Internet could create a simultaneous and seemingly eternal archive of everything someone with his predilections made. He's been involved in several hundred titles, at least, many of them out-of-print on tiny labels that do not exist anymore. In fact, one of those collaborations that Fair made in the '90s-Strange But True, with Yo La Tengo-has been hard to find, despite it's stateside release on October 20th 1998, by Matador Records.

For the first time, the album is being reissued on vinyl by Joyful Noise and Bar/None. By the time Fair played a party with Yo La Tengo in the mid-'90s, they were all friends, fans, and collaborators, having worked on or released records together. When Fair suggested they all head into the studio, the trio bit.

The result, Strange But True, is as wonderful, varied, and wild as some enormous lawn of native grasses. This collaborative album showcases the aritsts' uncanny range, bringing us back to a time when indie rock was still free to be as weird and unruly as it's makers wanted it to be.

Charlie’s Angel Steppers
Size: 7, Color: Black, Size: 7, Color: Black
These Beauties 😍 are grown women heels that can only be worn for a short while, Lordt, they are taxing on the arches and the the front of the shoe is very narrow so if you have a wide foot, Please reconsider or take some time to break these babies in. However, these are the Charlie Angels no one will be able to stop complimenting you on the quality and material of the shoes with that leather finished look , most heels are a very plastic or suede material, these took me back in time and that alone was steal for the price point

Gorgeous
Size: 9, Color: Tan
These are so pretty! I ended up returning these because they were so tall and I couldn’t walk in them as good as I thought I was going to be able to. Besides that, they fit true to size and were comfortable.

Wouldn’t recommend these sandals.
I was really excited to try the Steve Madden Women's Wafer Heeled Sandals, but unfortunately, I’m disappointed with the quality. The sandals look great in photos, but when I received them, I noticed that the materials felt cheap and not as durable as I expected from a brand like Steve Madden. The straps are stiff, and they rubbed against my skin, causing discomfort after only a short amount of time. The fit also wasn’t great — they felt a bit tight, especially around the toes, which made them hard to wear for longer periods. While the heel height is cute, the overall construction doesn’t seem to provide enough support, which made walking in them less comfortable than I anticipated. For the price, I expected better quality and comfort. Unfortunately, I wouldn’t recommend these sandals.
