Thanks to his Stones Throw-induced revival a few years back, Lab heads are probably more familiar than most with the saga of Gary Wilson, the mysterious NY musician with a teenage creeper persona who released a single incredible album in 1977 before disappearing off the face of the earth. That said, until you've seen this documentary, you don't know the half of it. In addition to the 74 minute feature, this set also includes over 30 minutes of extra footage (experimental Wilson films from the 70s with new soundtracks and director's commentary) and a bonus CD featuring the entire out-of-print masterpiece You Think You Really Know Me. Details from the box: "Championed by the likes of Beck and Matt Groening and obsessed over by record collectors, Gary Wilson's album, You Think You Really Know Me, is widely considered one of the most unique and personal musical statements of the 1970s. Director Michael Wolk set out to learn more about the man behind this esoteric record, only to find that he had all but vanished shortly after its original release. You Think You Really Know Me: The Gary Wilson Story is a look at the fascinating yet bittersweet life of a musician and artist well ahead of his time and ripe for rediscovery."
