I Don’t Wanna Be Too Cool (Expanded Edition) by Kate Fagan, legendary punk and ska pioneer from Chicago is out now. Originally a coveted self-released single put out in 1980, the release is a full-length remastered collectible white vinyl album featuring four previously unreleased tracks from Fagan’s 1986 ‘Kissing Concept’ rock opera.
‘I Don’t Wanna Be Too Cool’ was engineered by Mike Rasfeld at Southport Records in Chicago with multi-instrumentalist Ron Rutherford. Fagan played bass. The B-side ‘Waiting For The Crisis’ remains relevant as a warning about the power of the military-industrial complex and was recently added to MOJO’s monthly playlist column.
