Glen Banks On Tradewind Records

Ariel Pink before Ariel Pink? Glen Banks is reportedly from Long Beach, California - the same city the author of this blog resides in - but efforts to track him down have been futile as of this writing.

Glen released this 3-track 7" EP in 1989, with the standout tracks being "Coconut Dream" and the instrumental "Wish You Back To L.A."

Rumors have it Glen also had a television show back in the day on a local Long Beach cable access channel. I really dig this record and have yet to see another copy surface in the wild.
