A poet hailing from the UK, she is the author of 4 books of poems (Gash!, Skylight, Scrapbook, Jukebox) that are highly coveted amongst collectors of rare ephemera. Her recorded works seems to have come from those pages \u0026amp; this album collects the 8 tracks from her cassette release, 'Tender Hooks' (1986) + the five included on a V\/A tape, 'Real Time 6' from 1983. With assistance from John Ramo (guitar) \u0026amp; Zenon Slawinski (electronics), Fuller's cadence both flickers \u0026amp; haunts around the sparse, brilliantly executed arrangements. Zaius Tapes mastermind, Johan Klepp, says that he'd been listening to his copy of 'Tender Hooks' almost exclusively over the 2025 holidays \u0026amp; decided it\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e needed a vinyl legacy, thus combining 'Tender Hooks' with the 'Real Time 6' recordings for this 'Collected Works' lp. Spoken word, lo-fi, minimal synth, glits of Suicide come to mind within these pieces, as does the early works of Anne Clark. Done in a paste-on edition jacket w\/a pressing of 200, this is certainly release no one saw coming. Leave it to Zaius Tapes to make available something else we didn't know, but now need.\" - Anne Shirley, Bolingbroke, Nova Scotia.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K0X1T7_pUeA?si=bpz8D7N8HYUCptZT\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"No Label","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":48318325326043,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2295\/2925\/files\/Screenshot2026-03-03at2.29.40PM.png?v=1772566188","url":"https:\/\/www.fusetronsound.com\/products\/fulker-tina-tender-hooks","provider":"fusetron","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
