Ivory Library – 1st EP [12''] (1985, Dairyland Records, B-Side Records, Inc.)

 
Ivory Library formed in 1984 in Madison, WI, and disbanded in 1997. Members were Jeff Jagielo (guitar, vocals), Dave Batson (guitar, vocals, 1984-95), Mike Beery (drums, vocals, 1984-87), Ted Xistris (bass, vocals, 1984-88), Jim Lueptow (keyboards, vocals, 1987-93), Tim Stevens (drums, vocals, 1987-89), Derrick McBride (bass, vocals, 1988-97), Laura Brown (pan flute, guitar, vocals, 1988-89), Peter Bruhn (drums, vocals, 1989-96), Pat Connaughty (guitar, vocals, 1995-97) and Tim Schmitt (drums, vocals, 1996-97). 
 
In the early 2000s, Jagielo formed psych-rock band Squarewave which has issued five albums; Derrick McBride, originally from Chicago, Illinois, moved to Madison in 1984, where he joined the band The White Sisters, then joined Ivory Library in 1987. 
 
This 12'' is a haunting and essential psych-jangle / dream-pop by a creative and criminally-overlooked band, produced by a pre-grunge Butch Vig, who had far more luck and success than this band.
