Scott Miller 1960-2013 RIP


 It is with great sadness that head posts this album. Scott Miller, leader of both Game Theory and The Loud Family died on April 15th (weird, cuz that is yers truly's birthday). Head learned of his passing a couple of days ago surfing the innertubes. Came as quite a shock, dood was only 53 and left behind a wife and two little girls. No cause of death was listed, probably that sonofabitch cancer. 

 Scott was planning a new Game Theory album called Supercalifragile that will never see the light of day. Game Theory is one of head's all-time favorite 80's college radio bands. He discovered and bought their first album Real Nightime because it had a ripping cover of Big Star's You Can't Have Me. His clever wordplay and song structures were amazing. If you would like their other albums go here. They are free because the originals are out of print and are ridiculously expensive on Ebay. Gone way too soon, but his body of work is here to stay.  Enjoy this compilation of "greatest hits" and go get those soooperb recordings.
