 Operating in a basement studio at the confluence of the Mississippi and Missouri rivers, pipeline man Howard Neal - and his appropriately named Shoestring label - was Alton, Illinois’ answer to a question no one asked.

 Pressed in minuscule numbers and barely outside the 62002 zip code, the singles by The James Family, Jimmie Green, Pete & Cheez, and Carletta Sue are prime examples of cosmic midwestern disco in search of a break.

 This heavyweight, 10-song LP is housed in a tip-on sleeve and includes an essay and imagery that complete the picture of this pure expression of smalltown soul.
