13. Later that same summer, in July 1989, some friends and I were held at gunpoint for several hours by a deranged man. Our friend David Toews was murdered that night, and I subsequently fell into a deep depression. A few months later I saw a review of this Galaxie 500 album in Option Magazine and bought a copy at the old Music Inc. store at Douglas & Hillside. It proved to be strong medicine; it remains today a desert island disc for me. |
