Does anyone know whatever happened to Boom Boom Records? This was a great label that was releasing some killer lo-fi budget rock there for a while, but I haven't seen nor heard anything from Jesse Lortz or any of his bands (The Flying Dutchmen, The Fe Fi Fo Fums, The Sultanas and The Dutchess & The Duke) in a couple of years or so. The label's website is gone and the Boom Boom Party Records' Myspace page shows the last login there was 5/28/2009! I've even tried to email Jesse but never get any reply. It's like he fell off the face of the earth! WTF?

Yeah, he did the Caveman Digest, too. I'd forgotten about that! I think I have everything except the Dutchess & the Duke record.

I've been trying to snag copies of Thee Flying Dutchmen's LP and the Zombie IV 7" for a few years. I finally had to settle for a burned copy of the former, although I loathe having a mere mp3 copy of anything.

Luckily before their demise, I was able to order the Sultanas, some F.F.F. vinyl and a few other things. Such a great label.

I found a zine called Caveman Digest that I think they put out, or had something to do with. I have a photocopy of it and would be happy to throw a copy someone's way.
