I started collecting any piece of his legend that I could…some true, some likely not. He had hand-built all of his gear. He had broken his back. He was part of experimental surgery that left him in lifelong pain. He was a dancer. He was still kicking around making some of the oddest and most contrary-to-contemporary-popular-norms type of music. (A man after my own heart) And then I heard Goodby Sunball, recorded and released in 1974, the year I was born. I had and have a very deep connection with this set of songs. I wasn’t sure why, but when I finally met Michael, I understood. He was kind and seemingly a pretty regular guy. But he was also a weirdo. A rare bird, waving the true freak music flag, and it didn’t matter what kind of music he made, I loved it all. So, this record was recorded as a way to reboot and reconnect with some songs that have heavily inspired me over the years. It was hard to pick from his vast catalog, so I just sort of jumped in, with Tom Dolas, Nick Murray, and Brigid Dawson as my band (along with a bevy of others along the way) and these are the tunes that stuck to the wall. I will forever be grateful to Mr Yonkers for bringing me a little joy with his music and inspiring weirdos everywhere.” - \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=John+Dwyer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eJohn Dwyer\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohn Dwyer (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/search?type=product\u0026amp;q=Thee+Oh+Sees\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"\u003eThee Oh Sees\u003c\/a\u003e) covering various songs from folk rock singer-songwriter Michael Yonkers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eblue + red 'moonphase' colored vinyl\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003elimited edition\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emusic label: Castle Face 2020\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch6\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e","brand":"Damaged Bug","offers":[{"title":"Vinyl LP *Loc03","offer_id":32533569601626,"sku":"lp-11400","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/4542\/products\/damagedbug-bugonyonkers-coloredvinyl-1.jpg?v=1762278752","url":"https:\/\/www.turntablelab.mom\/products\/damaged-bug-bug-on-yonkers-vinyl-lp","provider":"turntablelab.mom","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
