SLEEVE NOTES: |
"Dear Friends,
As out little record company enters yet another confusing stage of its adolescence
(hormonal troubles, strange facial hair, voices changing, etc.) I cannot help but
recall the popular television series that helped inspire this label's formation,
"Matador At 15".
"Matador At 15" was one of TV's more honest attempts at portraying the pains and
joys of growing up and trying to run a record label. 15-year-old Chris Lombardi
was a bright, sensitive teenager who found his world completely turned upside down
when his father, a college professor, moved the family (and Chris's fledgling Matador
imprint) from Oregon to New York City in order to accept a new teaching position.
At first, Chris tried to run away; then he began to learn how to cope with life
in a new city. Among his new friends at Gritty Inner City High were: Marlene, a
"plain jane," very intelligent girl who always took the intellectual point of view
and Sly, his hip best friend who always had a little bit of advice or, as he called
it, "Sly-cology," when Chris needed it.
Chris was an avid photographer and also a daydreamer. One of the best elements of
the series were his periodic lapses into daydreaming of himself as he would like
to be - heroic & suave - portrayed in special, dream-like sequences. Although
there were lighter moments in "Matador At 15", the subject matter was often rather
serious: teenage alcoholism, venereal disease, independent radio promotion, etc.
The most controversial episode was one in which chris lost his virginity in an affair
with Swedish exchange student (played by Kirsten Baker)
Although subject matter in this show was tastefully handled and NBC had high hopes
for it, it did not attract a large audience and was cancelled after its first year.
Though we've been in negotiations with NBC to issue many of the classic "Matador
At 15" episodes on DVD, Chris Lombardi has withheld his consent, and as a result,
we've had to settle for yet another collection of classic tracks, hard-to-find rarities
and music videos only hope this collection is as enjoyable for you as it was agonizing
for us to compile.
