Russ Stedman - "Translation Snakes" (C-45, 1989)
RUSS STEDMAN - "TRANSLATION SNAKES" : (FACTSHEET FIVE, #33) - This one-man-band seems to have a split personality. Russ starts out with some gentle, slow-moving,sonic explorations. But by the end of the second side he's producing rock blow-outs (with a detour by way of a swamp full of ten-thousand frogs) that take your breath away. Living in South Dakota must give him plenty of time to think of new things to record. (Mike Gunderloy)
