Biography
One Of Clayton Noone’s many, many projects – presumably a duo with his Armpit bandmate Jon Arcus (Sugar Jon).
In the mid 90s to 2001ish, Armpit was spewing out so much music so it was a time to start a side-project, initially called ‘We Are The Bitchmen‘ we remembered an old make-band we had created years before, & so gave rebirth to The Naked Sailors.
The (sweet) stuff is all here, way looser & more free than Armpit, first disk A Naked Man was the first tape, 95, going through a windy house & recording in most of the rooms.
Second disk is Sweet Stuff, which comes from a few tapes in the 95-98 or so days, more spaced out & varied, & the last disk Her Armpits Acid was a bunch of tapes of The Naked Sailors covering Armpit songs, the mothership welcomes back its lost fighters. Big set of pics, opens out to large a3 poster.
