One of my favorite Bay Area bands, the Rum Diary, has got a retrospective coming out May 1 by Parks and Records, which is run by former Rum Diary member Jon Fee (currently of Shuteye Unison) and his wife Mimi. Retrospective 2000-2007 features seventeen tracks, including “The Day Dale Earnhardt Died”, “Poolside”, “Assassins in Moccasins” “Mileage”, “Sunken Fields”, “It’s Midnight”, as well as previously unreleased songs and those only available on vinyl. It’s $10. Do yourself a favor and pre-order it here.
