I originally released Timeless the clear album in 1982 to keep the music alive while I was living in Hollywood. As the years rolled by, it circled the globe without my knowing via word of mouth, and those with a rare vinyl were making cassettes and sharing them. In 2002, I was living like a human in Nevada working in a casino when I received a letter from a fan telling me how there was a growing interest in Zolar X’s music and Jello Biafra, from the Dead Kennedy’s, had a record label and wanted to reissue Timeless. In August, 2004, Alternative Tentacles Records reissued Timeless.

The digital download contains every track from the ATR CD. I don’t like to compare Zolar X’s music with anybody. We were and are one-of-a-kind. But if I had to, I’d say mix a little Ziggy Stardust and some Zeppelin with a pinch of Mozart. Spice it up with some Beatlesque harmonies and bake it in hard-core Punk oven.

Some of the bonus pics with the digital download are photos never-before-seen on planet Earth of Zolar X.

The songs on X Marks the Spot were written after a 17-year void of composing. Zory Zenith, my co-writer, was in prison on a ten year stretch.

The songs on X Marks the Spot were written after a 17-year void of composing. Zory Zenith, my co-writer, was in prison on a ten year stretch. Thinking my well had run dry, I was amazed in 2003 when I wrote Astro Tots. After that, it seemed like every day I was composing the rest of the XMS songs and writing the lyrics like back in the day of the Horizon Suite.

They feature Sci-fi Glam, Elfin Power Pop, a little dessert and even a vacation. The title song became so obvious it only took 30 years to realize X does mark the spot! Back in Hollywood captures the raw essence of proto-punk with a metal edge. I’m Plugged In was originally written in 1976 called Bicentennial Rock. The lyrics for Saucers on Sunset came in a letter from Zory who had written them in prison.
