Watch here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/r9t2sdd9b8y... Gary Wilson. Born Endicott NY 1953. Picks up bass, picks up on home recording, hangs out with John Cage at age 14 (scary, right?). Releases self-recorded jazz album in 1970. It's rare, don't bother looking. (Recorded in 1970, released in 1974 under the Gary Wilson Trio, the jazz album was called "Another Galaxy" "and features Tyrone Parks III on saxophone, Gary Iacovelli on drums and of course Gary himself playing bass and piano. Gary had already started trying to sell his music to record companies, such as the outsider-jazz label ESP records, but most labels considered his music too difficult to market. As a result, Gary released Another Galaxy privately in 1974 in an edition of 100 copies. These days, original copies of the album, on GTW records, are near impossible to find. In fact, it wasn’t until 2016 that fans were finally able to actually hear the album when Feeding Tube reissued it. However, The Gary Wilson Trio was inevitably short lived as Gary’s diverse musical interests were not to be restricted to playing “just” jazz. In 1975 Gary cut his first solo single, the wonderfully slick instrumental Dream(s)/Soul Travel for Twenty Second Century records. As one of the most coveted and rarest records in his back catalogue, even a weathered copy recently sold for more than $400 on eBay." - recordcollectormag ((Dream(S):    • Gary Wilson - Dream(S)   ), (Soul Travel:    • Gary Wilson - Soul Travel   )) Mid-70s. Gary gets weird. Records and self-releases You Think You Really Know Me in 1976, an album full of tales of groovy girls, chromium bitches, and mysterious calculations like "6.4 = Make Out." Gary disappears. Small cult grows. Beck name-drops him in a rap song. (    • Beck - Where It's At (Official Music Video)   ) 2002. Gary re-emerges, gets weirder. Releases "Mary Had Brown Hair" on Stones Throw. No one knows what to make of it. Even Bizarre Magazine thinks he's crazy (read: A Musical Guide To Stalking Your Ex Girlfriends: https://www.stonesthrow.com/news/a-mu... ) This is a limited edition, single vinyl pressing of Gary Wilson & The Blind Dates, recorded live, dirtily to vinyl, at Stones Throw's Direct To Disc #2 in Los Angeles, May 2011. https://web.archive.org/web/201112250... Gary and his friends Frank Roma, Carmen Putrino, Vince Rossi, Butch Bottino, Dave Haney and Joe Lunga were a tight bunch: “We were,” as Gary puts it, “the weird kids on the block.” This group of creative friends, with Roma and Bottino also cutting films, first became known as Dr Zork & The Warts, before turning into The Blind Dates in 1970. ( https://recordcollectormag.com/articl... ) More: Endicott is a village in Broome County, New York, named after its founder Henry B Endicott, a shoe manufacturer who christened the town “The home of the square deal”. To say that not much ever happened in Endicott would be a lie: computer giant IBM was founded there in 1911 and more importantly for RC, Gary Wilson was born there in 1953. The Wilson family embodied the essence of the town, with Gary’s father working at IBM during the day and playing stand-up bass in his lounge band at night. They kept ducks as pets. They were good times. At the tender age of nine, Gary had already mastered the cello and stand-up bass, adding piano, drums and guitar to his musical palette a few years later. Watching late-night horror movies and idolising the teenage pop stars of the day such as Dion and Fabian, and witnessing The Beatles perform at Shea Stadium, Gary started writing and recording his own songs at the age of 12. A year later he joined high school band Lord Fuzz, playing the Farfisa organ. Gary was a small kid, and he could barely reach the keys. Lord Fuzz cut a vanity single, Move On coupled with The Freak, in 1967, in an edition of 10 copies. A larger edition of 300 copies appeared, and instantly disappeared, (Lord Fuzz - Move On/The Freak: https://garywilsonmusic.bandcamp.com/... or    • Move On   and    • LORD FUZZ - THE FREAK
