The Bear Comes Home

NPR just ran a story Thursday evening on some good books about music “that don’t have to be boring”. The tag line was amusing and caught my attention - it turns out that the books they picked included two of my favorites - Lester Bang’s “Psychotic Reactions and Carburetor Dung” and Rafi Zabor’s “The Bear Comes Home”.

When Rafi is not busy turning out books about a saxophone-playing bear, he can be found here on taintradio, putting together exquisite shows of new music during his weekly show “Updoc”, which airs Friday nights at 8pm and Tues at noon. “The Bear Comes Home” is a very unusual book from a very unusual guy — our own Rafi Zabor — give him some love and check out his book sometime if you haven’t already. Highly recommended.
