"When I met the guys in Stag, I didn't know much about them. But after hearing their music and seeing them live, I knew I wanted to put out a single! Their brand of 70's inspired rock power-pop reminds me of some of my favorite artists like Cheap Trick, The Cars & T-Rex. To top it off, both songs on the single were recorded by Seattle icon Jack Endino. Yeah, he's the guy that produced Nirvana's Bleach and other early tunes from Soundgarden and Mudhoney." -Mike McCready

"I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Dr. Kenneth Noisewater. You ladies play your cards right you just might get to meet the whole gang."
Thanks Chris Estey for the kind words. “Just got this slinky, crunchy, very naughty STAG 45 in my box (eek!). It’s a true delight, a great sample of the superb vinyl releases from HockeyTalkter Records. I’m sent back into a summer night of my past, Columbian pot-wafting trailer park yard under glittering coals of stars, sharing a sleeping bag with Janie, whose brother John made out with Rhoda nearby in their own bag. Summer stoned and deep tongue kissing for the first time, and the chorus of this song tickles like anything by the Sweet and stomps like pop Slade. The flip “Runner” has a buzzy Badfinger jog to it (“I’ve been making the same old jokes / living on rum and cokes / get me high!!”); both choruses on this new single are true boss. Thanks boys! Right on”.- Chris Estey
WOW! They sure are shipping fast outside of North American. I haven't yet received my order Gleason 7" singles here in Canada & yet you received this one already? What in gods name is taking so long @ the CDN / USA border?

This one looks like it came USPS again like previous Hockeytalkter releases did before they switched to the 10c store. The gleason 7 and the levee walkers recent release took about a month each to arrive. Hope the Gleason one arrives in Canada soon.
In this edition of Tell Me About That Track, we catch up with Ben London of five-piece rock outfit STAG, a group currently promoting its latest 7-inch single, the T-Rex-indebted "The Bedazzler," through Mike McCready's HockeyTalkter Records (find it via Pearl Jam's site here). You can hear them play it live this Friday at Darrell's Tavern 7th anniversary party.
