Ten minutes in to the conversation with Jim and I'm hooked. Gotta go grab this book. I came to SST later on, (1990-ish) after catching on to the Boston scene at the time (Dinosaur Jr., Pixies, Blake Babies, etc.). This is amazing stuff. Thanks for the interview, Tom.

I got on the SST train in the early '80s, thanks to a local record store getting in some 7" singles from California, I got the Minutemen's Paranoid Time and a friend bought California Uber Alles on Alternative Tentacles, and that was our introduction to hardcore, I think I got TV Party not too long after that, and then Huskers and Meat Puppets and so on, anything on SST I would check out, if it turned up on this side of the continent. Will definitely check out Jim's book, and keep an eye out for some Stains, definitely long overdue for a proper reissue.
