PRIMER: Asthmatic Kitty On … Library Music
January 25, 2010
We’ve always been a fan of library music, the genre-jumping LPs that were used to score commercials, films and television shows throughout the ’60s and ’70s.

Superpitcher Tells Us Everything We Need To Know About His New ‘Kilimanjaro’ Album, Including a Video of Its First Single
