Tar began in Chicago. Tim Mescher played bass guitar until 1991, at which point Tom Zaluckyj took over with his trademark aluminum bass. John Mohr also used an aluminum guitar while Mark Zablocki’s guitar was of the wooden variety. Mike Greenlees rounded out the line-up on drums. From 1988 until 1995, Tar wrote songs that were built on hypnotic repetition of guitar and drums, while the role of vocals was often secondary. They were an exceedingly tight group of musicians that toured the U.S and Europe extensively with Jawbox, The Jesus Lizard, and Arcwelder among others. They released four albums, two ep’s, and several singles during their tenure.

ORIGIN/PROVENANCE: My friend Corey Rusk, who runs Touch & Go Records (and formerly of The Necros), has been cleaning out his storage space and has realized that he really doesn't have any more room for the all doubles and triples of many of the rare records in his collection. He's busy running Touch and Go and doesn't have the time to deal with selling his extras... but they do need to go. So he asked me to help him sell them off. And of course, as a long time friend of Corey and and fan of Touch and Go Records (along with being a 10+ year eBay seller with a perfect feedback rating of 1900+), I jumped at the chance.
New items will be listed every Sunday at 2PM EST.
PAYMENT: Paypal only. Or so sez eBay.
SHIPPING: The record will be housed between two pieces of cardboard and then put inside a sturdy mailer which might possibly be recycled (in an effort to save trees). I ship records the way I like them shipped to me. Simple as that. If you live inside the US, shipping is only available by priority mail (due exclusively to less expensive service's unreliability) and tracking is provided free of charge. Outside of the US, airmail rates apply. IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE THE US, DO NOT PAY UNTIL I SEND YOU AN INVOICE! Hey Italy! Insurance is not automatically provided but is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED.
And yes, I'll be happy to combine shipping. It saves your money, my time and the environment!
