3.0 out of 5 stars
Outstanding group, not-so-outstanding CD, October 25, 2001
This review is from: Plain Brown Wrapper: Unreleased Songs 1984-1989 (Audio CD)
As is often the case on CDs consisting of previously unreleased tracks, on listening to the CD, you begin to realize why the tracks were not released earlier. Even the liner notes have a kind of apologetic tone to them, saying things to the effect of "yeah, I know this is a lousy recording, but it's all we had."
Die hard fans (and I consider myself one of them) will want to get this CD simply because it does contain some songs you can't get any other way, but none of the songs on the CD really grabbed me the way "Isaac's Lament" or "Silent Night" did.
I would recommend you buy "The Inessential Uncle Bonsai" (ASIN B000003Y0V) if you're looking for a good introduction to Uncle Bonsai.

I have enjoyed Uncle Bonsai since they performed in Seattle in the early 80's. I always enjoy a new release of theirs!
