song bones
Looking for bones and finding treasure
Throwing Muses
What information is here?
I have listed every Hersh Muses song from the albums and EP's. (Up to "Uses" so far, all the albums released before "10-4 all")
​
A listing will say after it, where the bones can be found. Either 10-4 all, one of the 10-4 you sets I have (these will all be linked when I can finish uploading), or from a Radio performance, or live. (In most cases there will be more than one version available. the one I choose might not be your favourite, and in my opinion they're all worth exploring) anything that says "Maxwell's, Hoboken, 1992-08-10" is referring to the live recording bundled with some versions of "Red Heaven"
You'll find all 5 volumes of "10-4 all" for sale on The Hersh's website, if you don't already have the pleasure.
​
You can also find out about becoming a Strange Angel and helping The Hersh to keep making music for us.
​
You can find my Hersh/Muses/50FW bootleg list here, I am always looking for live recordings I don't have. So if you have anything of interest, please get in touch.
​
A listing in blue means for whatever reason (Usually it's instrumental, or as good as) it doesn't fall into the acousticating category.
​
A listing in red means there is no acoustic version that I know of. If you know of something that I don't then you can contact me here via email, or @ch33sl3y on the discord server or on twitter.
