Details from Matador's Annotated Discography:

Ruta 66 is a great music magazine from Spain, or at least it looks great, as none of us can read it, as it is in Spanish. The best Daniel Johnston song ever recorded, " The Monster Inside of Me", is also on here. The was song recorded on Tara Key's 4-track, in Ira & Georgia's old house. It features the beautiful vocals of their late cat Shauna.

Line-up:

Georgia Hubley - Singing, Drums
Ira Kaplan - Guitar
Egon - Cat Noises
