A maven of bizarre music, Otis Fodder, and his far-flung cronies conspired in 2003 to post one MP3 a day for the entire year. But these aren't any old songs. In fact, many of them aren't songs at all.

The recordings come from anonymous cassettes found at yard sales and thrift shops, high school talent shows, corporate training materials, commercials, self-help records, religious propaganda, and even some well-known names singing some not-so-well-known ditties the world may have otherwise forgotten. Artists range from The Detroit Zoological Park to the United States Air Force; from Ford to Chevrolet; from Strawberry Shortcake to Barbie & Ken.

Each entry has an accompanying description, and comments made by visitors at the time of the posting have also been preserved.

Among my favorites: "Understanding Marx" (#006), "The Monkey Song" (#075) and "Leper In A Tumbledryer" (#087).

This collection disappeared from the web when it finished its run at the end of 2003. Now, through the wisdom and generosity of the fine folks at UBUWEB, this collection has found a permanent home, and the internet is a better place because of it.
