Young Herbage

Young Herbage was a project created by Harry and Jason for a radio contest in March of 1993. There was a local radio personality named JC that was disliked by the morning show Jason and Harry listened to. The show had a song-writing contest and whoever recorded the best song bashing JC would get to perform their song live at an upcoming event the morning show was hosting.

Jason and Harry decided to enter the contest. The song they recorded was called "JC's Suckin' Eggs". Jason recorded the basic music tracks of drums, bass, and rhythm guitar. Then Harry went to the studio and they recorded the lyrics written by both of them. Jason took the 4-track recorder to Harry's house to record Harry's guitar solo. Then Jason ended the song with a lot of samples from the morning show.

They quickly came up with the name of the project and created an album cover. The only copy of the album cover that was made was given to the radio station. To the right is a scan of the sheet used to make the cover.

The tape was taken to the radio station. The show played it on the air and commented that it did sound like Jason and Harry were on some herbage. Thus Young Herbage ended and as quickly as it had been created.

The song appeared on the 1994 compilation EP titled Binary Pipedream.
