who knows about fred thomas?

he's the man behind saturday looks good to me, who are pretty much the best remaining indie band i know now arab strap is no more - they've done some of the most beautiful music ever, a lot of it just tour-only 12"s and stuff. dan hancox will back me on that i think as he's a mark for them.

but thomas does loads, and loads of stuff- solo, or with flshppr or lovesick or whatever, he seems to have a thousand different projects on the go, and i've never bought anything with his name on that wasn't good. i don't know if he really updates his myspace or anything, but there's been a partial discography on it for a while. to my knowledge there's not a massive amount of information about him online. (actually, now i've provoked myself into looking properly it turns out he has a blog).

he's one of the true enigmas in guitar music left in my head really- someone who just puts out endless amounts of material and doesnt publicise it, like you need to do the searching. he's like a pop matt bower or something. any other dissensus users into him?
