I was already obsessed with private-press records when Sinecure published its lavish 2013 coffee-table book Enjoy the Experience: Homemade Records 1958-1992. I’d long loved punks for creating their own infrastructure outside the commercial-first spaces of quote-unquote legitimate pop musicians. So I was primed to fall for this entirely different universe of artists, who’d created and released records completely outside the music business, with little regard for how or even if the public might receive them—sometimes these artists’ potential audiences were no bigger than their circles of friends.
