How to purchase Old 3C downloads
Old 3C works with the good folks at IODA
to supply MP3s and other downloadable audio files to
a wide variety of on-line vendors, including Apple iTunes, eMusic,
and the Amazon
MP3 store. Please visit these vendors (or many others out there
in cyberspace) to get your legal download on. Viva la capitalism y'all.
| 3C 24 | Vena Cava, self-titled CDR
| 9 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Columbus' own Vena Cava make their debut with this nice
set of melodic noise rock. Previously self-released in 2005, we're proud
to give it the Old 3C mail order + digital download treatment. Some may
say that their inclusion has everything to do with one of the band members
sharing a last name with the guy who runs the label. Hey, blood is thicker
than water -- but rock breaks scissors, punk.
|
3C 23 | Mike Hagen, The Ballad of Fungobat CDR
| 17 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Mike Hagen, the artist formerly known as Fungobat, returns
with this collection of mostly studio recordings to complement his previously
well-received collection of four track recordings (see 3C 12 below). We're
not sure why Mike abandoned the Fungobat name this time -- maybe it had
to do with iTunes listing it as "Fungboat"? Anyhow, if you liked
Vol.1, you'll definitely like this one too.
|
3C 22 | Various Artists, Twenty One and Hungover CDR
| 21 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Old
3C celebrates reaching adulthood (yo, twenty one releases!) with
this compilation. One song from each release in order of their release.
Just see the descriptions below to figure out what you might expect to
hear.
|
3C 21 | Ron House, Obsessed CD
| 12 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Ron
House’s (Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments, Great Plains, Moses Carryout,
Twisted Shouts) solo CD documenting a friend’s mental and marriage
issues (don’t worry, it all worked out in the end). Ably assisted
by a TJSA band-mate Bob Petric, and the boys from long-time Columbus acts
Moviola and the Black Swans. Originally released by the Moses Carryout
label in 2002.
|
3C 20 | Ron House, New Wave as the Next Guy CD
| 18 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
As advertised, Ron House, from his early days with pre-Great
Plains outfits Twisted Shouts and Moses Carryout. Originally released
on the Spare Me label in 1999. Some of you may also remember these tracks
appearing on the “Blind Boy In The Backseat” cassette release
by Columbus label Old Age in the ‘80s.
|
3C 19 | Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments, No Old Guy Lo Fi Cry CD
| 13 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Columbus, Ohio legends Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments,
in their late ‘90s final line-up. Somewhat ignored upon release,
these songs only sound better as time goes by. Originally released by
Bobby Pollard’s Rockathon label in 2000.
|
3C 18 | Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments, Bait and Switch CD
| 12 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Mid ‘90s classic line-up Thomas
Jefferson Slave Apartments. “Bombs away on the Rock ‘n’
Roll Hall of Fame.” y’all. “Blow it up before Steve Albini
makes a speech” indeed. Originally released by Onion/American Records
in 1995.
|
3C 17 | Thomas Jefferson Slave Apartments, You Lookin' For Treble? CD
| 20 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
The Slave Apartments in their early ‘90s line-up.
Great collection of hard-to-find tracks that led up to their high-profile
“Bait And Switch” release on Onion/American. Originally released
by Year Zero in 1997.
|
3C 16 | Great Plains, Slaves to Rock N Roll CDR
| 15 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Some
of you may remember this release as a cassette from 1985. If so, you're
pretty freakin' old. If not, then it's new to you. The original tracks
are here, except for a few things that ended up on Cornflakes. But we've
made it up to you by adding some other previously-unavailable-in-the-digital-world
material. Are the Great Plains vaults now officially emptied? Hard to
say -- better stay tuned to see.
|
3C 15 | The New Normal, The Sprightly Sounds of The New Normal CD
| 8 songs | $8 us (mail order) | $6
us (digital) |
Absolutely
fantastic songs from Chicago's Mike Ritt (Peck of Snide, Shades of Al
Davis, Midwest Music Liquidators), ably-assisted by his pals from the
Young Fresh Fellows and other Seattle indie legends. Recorded at Egg (owned
by Conrad Uno) in a sort of indie-rock recording party experience. Originally
released on Mike's Mallard Pointe label in 2003, it's now available here
for your mail order and download pleasure.
|
3C 14 | Shades of Al Davis, The Midwest Peace Talks Vols.1, 2 CD
| 11 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
The
second Shades of Al release, which takes a slightly different approach
than the first (see 3C 08 below). Namely, Mike Ritt and Alan Spindle contribute
most of the songs, with original main Shades-man Steve Lindstrom taking
somewhat of a back seat. It's equally great, but in a more home-made indie-pop
sort of way. Like the New Normal release, it was also released on the
Mallard Pointe label
(back in 1999). Yep, you'll need this one too.
| 3C 13 | Saint Paul & His Coalition of the Willing, Everyone Is
Wrong CDR
| 13 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Subtitled "12 Laments from the 2nd Bush Era + Bonus Track,"
Paul Nini lets loose with his third solo effort, assisted by a
Who's Who of musical pals including members of Log, Moviola, Shades of
Al Davis, the New Normal, Great Plains, Househearts, Peck of Snide, Vena
Cava, and New Basics Brass Band. Liberals everywhere should listen to
this as they celebrate the Democrats' huge wins in the mid-term 2006 elections.
| 3C 12 | Fungobat,
Greatest Hits Vol.1 CDR
| 27 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Four-track recordings from the late '70s to the late '80s, by Cincinnati
popster and songwriter Mike Hagen. Some classic songs that predate the
whole lo-fi thing from the early '90s by a long shot. Look out for Vol.2,
which will feature a full-load of studio recordings. Not sure when that's
coming out, but we'll let you know -- actually it is out now, so see 3C
23 above for more info.
|
3C 11 | Log, Logjammin' CDR
| 12 songs | $10 us (mail order) | $8
us (digital) |
Log's "Odds and Sods" if you will. Features re-recordings
of early material, a lost track rescued from an obscure compilation, some
live and studio covers, and alternate versions of some Log Almighty tracks.
This one closes the book on Log's ten-plus year run. Fans of the Big Lebowski
will enjoy the title and cover art.
|
3C 10 | Great
Plains, Live at the Electric Banana, Pittsburgh, 1985
CDR
| 21 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
Some of you may have been lucky enough to hear this on cassette back in
the '90s -- and now it's finally been made digital for your listening
pleasure. This set catches the Plains in great form as part of their "Let
Dick Clark Work Out All the Details" tour in the spring of 1985.
| 3C 09 | Log, Log Almighty CD
| 12 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
More of Log's critically acclaimed, melodic indie rock -- featuring various
special guests and some of their finest songs
ever. Purchase it on-line through the good folks at Anyway
Records (who
coreleased it) and
Revolver Distribution USA.
You can also buy it
directly from Old 3C via Amazon.com,
if that's your thing.
| 3C 08 | Shades of Al Davis, self-titled CDR
| 15 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
Former Peck of Snide members Steve Lindstrom + Mike Ritt team up with
Alan Spindle to
create some very nice, acoustic-based songs (recorded early-90s). Also
check-out their mighty-fine
CD of later material, The Midwest Peace Talks Vols.1, 2 (above).
| 3C 07 | Log, The Early Years CDR
| 18 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
All of the songs from their one full-length and two EP releases for the
Anyway label, which came
out in 1993, 94, and 96. Remastered and collected here in one handy package
for your convenience.
| 3C 06 | Paul Nini & His Orchestra, Life in These United
States CDR
| 18 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
The first
solo release by Log's frontman, originally released in 1997 by the TMIV
label. Repackaged
and offered here, since you probably missed it the first time.
Features covers of Go-Betweens, Choir, and Tall Dwarfs songs.
| 3C 05 | Peck of Snide, Moot CD
| 14 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
Early 90s band featuring Steve Lindstrom + Mike Ritt (Shades of Al Davis),
Paul Nini (Log,
etc.) and Jerry Schweigert. Country-tinged indie rock, well-liked in Sweden,
for whatever reason. Also originally
released in 1997 by the TMIV label, and repackaged and re-released by
Old 3C.
| 3C 04 | Great Plains, Cornflakes CDR
| 26 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
Material that wasn't included on the 2-CD set (below). Includes alternate
studio + live versions of
familiar songs, previously unheard originals, and obscure covers.
For no particularly
good reason, we've made this available for order again. We think Ron forgot
why he wanted us to sell only fifty. Anyhow, order at will.
| 3C 03 | Paul Nini, The Mannerist Age CDR
| 12 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
Melodic keyboard drones
and slow pop goodness from this Log frontman and former member
of Great Plains, Peck of Snide, and Househearts. Sit back and enjoy the
bliss.
| 3C 02 | Great Plains, Length of Growth 1981-89, 2-CDR set
| 50 songs | $15 us (mail
order) | $13
us (digital) |
The well-received 2-CD retrospective set that includes almost all of the
songs from the 1980s
Homestead (US) and Shadowline (NL) releases of these Columbus, Ohio legends.
Now available as a
2-CDR set, though some copies of the original pressing might still be
found on-line (good
luck with that).
| 3C 01
| Log, Auto Fire Life CD
| 14 songs | $10 us (mail
order) | $8
us (digital) |
Critically-acclaimed, melodic indie-rock from this long-running (1993-2004)
Columbus, Ohio band, which included former
members of Great Plains and Naked Skinnies. A few copies of the 1999 pressing
of this release are
still available, so order away to hear Log's satisfying, no-frills, rollicking
songs.

About Old 3C's releases:
Old 3C's early releases
were manufactured CDs, but since then we've also concentrated on
made-to-order CDRs
housed in sturdy chipboard sleeves and other custom packages. Either way,
you're going to find things
here that you won't see too many other places, and at good prices too.
We'll be doing more
of both types of physical releases, so please check back now and again
for updates. As
well, please see our digital retail partners listed in the Streaming Jukebox,
where you can get your download on. Finally, please note that we're now
also offering all of our releases as digital downloads direct from Old
3C -- see the Order page for details.
