287 - Walter Schreifels





Without a doubt, one of my favorite musicians is Walter Schreifels.  His resume is astonishing.  I've pulled together a short overview of his career, focused on bands he played in, or sang with.  I didn't include albums he produced but didn't appear on.  There's some sound quality issues on a couple tracks (Gorilla Biscuits w/ Walter singing, Moondog and World's Fastest Car) because some of these groups only released demos.  Quicksand and Rival Schools are on here twice because he revived both projects after a decade or more.   Speaking of which, I'm going to the Quicksand - Slip anniversary tour later this year and I'm very excited.  I missed Quicksand last year because of some health issues, and I'm determined not to miss this one.
