Something She Said existed for a short time, 1991-92? I don't recall seeing many people at their shows but they were one of my favorite bands at the time. Probably a little too pop oriented for the grunge obsessed Northwest of the early 90's but if these guys had been from the East Coast I imagine Matador would have snapped them up quicker than you could say the band's name. At some point in '92 shortly after the three bonus tracks I'm including here were recorded, Kurt left the band. Ty and John re-grouped as The Betmars and released a couple of things which I hope to eventually post so stay tuned.

Eugene Saunders - Guitar
Ben Beebee (RIP) - Bass/Vocals
Rachel Blumberg - Drums/Vocals
Three Pigs were one of about a zillion projects the three band members were involved with during their time at the University of Oregon. Some jazz influence, some Firehose, some Vomit Launch (hearing sweet voiced Rachel sing Vomit Launch's "Swelling Admiration" is a personal favorite, so wrong but so right!). Don't know much about the history of the band, think Eugene was also in the Black Dahlias when this was recorded, Ben & Rachel were also in Otto. This tape has the distinction of being (by-far) the most difficult to transfer to the digital realm due to there being no time at all between tracks so sorry in advance if the track increments are a little sloppier than you're used to. The tape was engineered by Patrick Yonally who you may remember from The Batcows, The Davenports, if, The Black Dahlias, The Undertakers, Otto, Flypaper or Sugarking. There are probably a couple I'm forgetting too, Patrick was a very busy guy!
