Well, we think that's what this is. This bizarre video, in which local singer/songwriter and Fight The Big Bull collaborator James Wallace is interviewed (in Chinese, but with English subtitles) on the streets of New York, was sent to us with no real explanation by James's PR people, who refused to answer any questions about its origin. Perhaps this has something to do with the mysterious Chinese record label who pressed James's debut album, More Strange News From Another Star, mailed him 100 cassette copies of the album, and then disappeared? Regardless of its origin, this may actually have aired on Chinese TV. Or maybe not, but it is pretty funny. Worth watching, if nothing else. And do check out James's album on bandcamp--we wrote about it last year, and still consider it to be a great example of quirky pop songcraft. Enjoy.
