Bob I think asks his brother Jim if he could remember any of them and he responses with "Corn Country" and they laugh.<br /><br />It is also mentioned in a CMJ article from October 2000. It is an interview with Bob about the first Suitcase: Failed Experiments And Trashed Aircraft box set. He also mentions this song. Here is a link to the article.<br /><br />https://www.robertpollard.net/oldgbvsite/cmjoct2000.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04414998573479338614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1296276308922609437.post-83543411627031236942019-05-15T09:29:40.192-07:002019-05-15T09:29:40.192-07:00Whoa did not realize that.

I agree with most of what you say, in that the original 7" was fun and the first LP was very thin gruel indeed, but this...this is almost genius. I genuinely love it.
