John Henry Timmis IV
Original Promotional Copy #16 signed & Limited Edition
(note: this item is currently being re-released on Drag City label)
Before word of this project got out, it's safe to say Timmis's fans numbered in the low hundreds, and most of them had probably heard him only on an obscure 2004 punk comp called Staring Down the Barrel. Timmis self-released four singles and one LP while living in and around Chicago in the 80s, all in small pressings, and very few have survived—Cosmic Lightning curator Robert Manis says there are only two known copies of the first seven-inch. A fifth, recorded in '83, was never even pressed, but Timmis included the tracks that would've been on it when he put together his 1987 compilation LP, also called Cosmic Lightning.

psychedelic touches. Cosmic Lightning is a barely-released slice of
psychedelic punk from the 1980s,
