Smog Veil Records worked for 10 years+ to create the definitive Peter Laughner retrospective.
Peter Laughner was a singer songwriter from Cleveland like no other. Before his untimely death in 1977, he played in numerous bands, most notably Rocket From The Tombs and Pere Ubu, and also as a solo performer. He wrote for a variety of weekly newspapers and Creem, where he was a contemporary of Lester Bangs. He famously told Jane Scott of the Cleveland Plain Dealer that he wanted to do for Cleveland what “...Brian Wilson did for California and Lou Reed did for New York.” In many ways, Peter did in fact put the Cleveland underground on the map.
In cooperation with Peter's estate and his many collaborators, the box set contains the definitive statement of Peter's musical talents and additionally showcases his writings and the many works he created with a variety of talented friends. Smog Veil's research team looked in every basement, attic, and corner to uncover numerous gems.
Many of the 56 songs contained in the release are seeing the light of day for the very first time. All songs have been carefully mastered and sonically upgraded from the best possible sources by the Grammy-nominated team of Jeff Lipton and Maria Rice at Peerless Mastering. The box set also contains a 100 page hardbound book of photos and writings.
