R. Stevie Moore - Lo Fi Hi Fives..... A Kind Of Best

Facts 2012 collection from the godfather of lo-fi/badroom recordings. R Stevie is fast turning into a 40 year overnight sensation. A recent cover star of the Wire and a record store day split single with the Vaccines have meant that people want to know what R Stevie is doing. For the last four decades, R Stevie has been making albums and creating an impressive back catalog. That back catalog consists of over 500 albums. The task of compiling 'Lo Fi High Fives' was something O Genesis supremo Tim Burgess had to keep moving on, sure in the knowledge that once they'd all been heard, R Stevie would have recorded another handful that would have to be pored over. Lo Fi High Fives is just the tip of the giant foam finger, check out David Quantick's sleeve notes for a real flavor of the man. Add him on Facebook.
