Overview

Presents Over The Edge Vol. 6: The Willsaphone Stupid Show --- 1993

Packaged in a fat jewel case with 8-page booklet. The Willsaphone Stupid Show is a two CD collection of recordings edited from two different broadcasts on KPFA's Over the Edge radio show, hosted by Don Joyce. The Weatherman (a.k.a. David Wills) has been involved with Negativland since the beginning, but before that he was an audiophile of an unusual nature, and began recording himself and his family at a very young age. Presented on these discs is a rather extensive audio collage using the home-recordings David Wills made of himself and his family, dating back to when he was a child. For the uninitiated, these are extremely voyeuristic samples of a suburban family from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s. The Weatherman is a fan-favorite among Negativland fans, and by proxy, his family has become well known via Over The Edge. This CD set is a chance to experience the Wills family firsthand. These CDs consist entirely of material recorded live on Negativland's weekly radio show, Over The Edge. North American distribution by Mordam. European distribution by RecRec. N© and N℗ 1993
