Later On
Encyclopedia
Later On is the third release by avant-
folk
/blues singer/songwriter Jandek
, and the second released by Corwood Industries
(#0741) in 1981. It was reissued on CD in 2000.
As with the prior Six and Six
(and most of Ready for the House
), this is a stark acoustic and vocals album with roots in Delta blues. Unlike the first two, however, the pace is picked up a bit, and there are other musicians present, or the harmonica appearing for the first time may be overdubbed.
The song "The Janitor" would receive a sequel eight years later on the album The Living End
with the song "Janitor's Dead."
