What does a guy who has put out over 3000 reissues (most recently via Real Gone Music) in his career do when he finally gets to make his own record? He blasts out 14 tunes in which similarly obsessed pop music archivists might hear traces of Neil Young, Television, the Byrds, Joy Division, and Pavement. At least those are some of the acts that artist Gordon Anderson had in mind when he recorded Moon Man. Featuring co-production and musical contributions from Kathryn Korniloff (Two Nice Girls), Moon Man tackles drugs, drink, death, dogs, daughters, depression, and, yes, disease with mordant wit and manifest melancholy.
