Gary Wilson’s monumental 1977 LP reissued with a glamorously shiny foil cover bearing the original cover art (care of Owen Maercks’s well-loved copy), delicately laid out by Scott Allison. Which makes it, perhaps, the last copy you’ll ever need. You Think You Really Know Me (also the title of Michael Wolk’s 2005 documentary about Wilson) was Wilson’s second LP, but the first he recorded as a vocalist, hewing to his own bizarre vision — a syncretic collision of romance, new wave cocktail jazz, heartbreak, disco porn-soundtrack music, and experimental tape manipulation. Home-recorded in Endicott, NY, the album found a few fans when released, but subsequently became the exclusive purview of record collectors and the women who tolerate them. Beck namechecked Wilson in 1996, which made a few new people scratch their heads. And the album was reissued in 2002. Rediscovery followed, and records, the documentary, and some odd live shows. Most of Wilson’s moves are stamped with his unique aesthetic, and are also documented on other three recommended Feeding Tube LPs — Lisa Wants to Talk to You (FTR 081LP), Forgotten Lovers (FTR 065LP), and Music for Piano (FTR 192LP). But as bodacious as these three albums are, the real root of Wilson’s muse is most obvious on You Think You Really Know Me. It is the sound of a 23-year old oddball from upstate New York wrestling with his demons and actually winning. There’s nothing quite like it. And it offers a story of hope to every weirdo who hears it. Hallelujah!
