A Chat with BAG PEOPLE


Author/journalist Joel Gausten talks with the reunited members of seminal early-'80s Chicago/NYC band Bag People – Algis Kizys (SWANS/Of Cabbages and Kings/Pigface/Foetus), Carolyn Master (Of Cabbages and Kings/Glenn Branca), Diane Wlezien (Of Cabbages and Kings), Gaylene Goudreau (DA!/Bloodsister/Revolt-Chix), and Pete Elwyn (Plebroom Theatre Group) – about their history and the recent vinyl release of archival recordings from 1983 on Drag City. Jordan Mamone (Alger Hiss), who played a major role in coordinating the Drag City LP, later joins them in the conversation.
