L7 - Everglade 12”
Slash Records1992
Another L7 single I bought because my Bricks are Heavy album is in such poor condition. This is a single-sided 12” single with an awesome etched second side.
I’m glad I bought this because of the non-album track Freak Magnet that I’d never heard before.
Listen to “Freak Magnet”.
L7 (Band) (edit)
L7 with producer Butch Vig at Sound City, during the recording of Bricks Are Heavy, 1991. (Via the official L7 Facebook page) Here’s an outtake from my book, Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge, in which Vig discuss the events surrounding the making of the album:
BUTCH VIG (producer) L7 were amazing. The sessions at Sound City were pretty straightforward, and then we went to Smart [Studios] back in Madison for like a month to finish overdubs and mix, and they took over the town. We rented a house a couple blocks in the studio, and it turned into the biggest fuckin’ party palace in Madison. They knew every druggie, junkie, bookie, psycho killer, man on the street. Every sort of scoundrel that Madison had, they knew. It was a parade of weirdos coming and going from the studio. It was pretty wild. To this day I still run into people going, “Man, those girls from L7, they fuckin’ knew how to party!”

Before the encore ladies in the crowd started chanting “Sluts! Sluts! Sluts!”, when L7 returned to the stage they were baffled, “Are you saying SLUTS?” they asked
L7 on the cover of LA Weekly - November 1999. Found it in my collection of magazines. Got to find a way to frame it and hang it up.
