Gary Pig Gold (and, yes, "Pig" is an official part of the package) is something of a Renaissance man and lightning rod for the last quarter of 20th-century indie and underground pop. As a band member and songwriter, producer, sideman, arranger, record label owner, distributor, publisher, editor, and writer, he has emerged as an all-around patron, promoter, and champion not only for artists that have flown beneath the radar but also for the grand history of pop music, in its broader connotation. It is conceivable that, all apologies to James Brown, he is rock music's all-time hardest-working man.
