EPIC ALBUM COVER #121

Thinking Fellers Union Local 282 - Strangers From the Universe

Released: 1994 (Matador)

Partial rolls of stickers from U.S. label Matador Records, each one featuring a unique design promoting Thinking Fellers Union Local 282′s 1994 album Strangers From the Universe.

These stickers are a fun and colorful riff on the painted lightbulbs featured on the cover of TFUL282′s 1994 album. While I cannot conjure up a specific picture in my head of one or more of these adorning the “coffins” (record bins) at my old radio station, I have no doubt that at least one ended up adhered there or to some other flat surface in our Record Hospital den. Because even though they ended up on the “major indie” Matador starting with their 1991 album Lovelyville, this was one of the bands most of us DJs could agree on.

He's a lot like me.
