This is a great album of little known Ann Arbor groups or some that are known in early configurations. I know for a personal fact that The Bossmen & The Frost tracks are being used without permission. Just go ask Dick Wagner, he wrote & sang the tracks. He told me Jeep had no right to take those tapes and leave town. Most of the tracks here are unreleased, with promises of a Rationals anthology soon. No one from the record label has answered my emails as to when the Rationals cd is coming, but any disc about A Squared Records without The Rationals is just fluff, and with most of the songs unreleased tracks anyway, can’t be truly representative of the label. I love this record even tho it is flawed for the above reasons, and hopefully there is a Volume 2 planned as well as the promised Rationals multi-label anthology (they were only on two in their lifetime, and a live album after).
