Analphabetapolothology is an anthology compilation album by Cap'n Jazz released in 1998[1] on Jade Tree Records. It catalogues almost every song recorded and released by the band during their time together except an early song called "Naive."
The album consists of the band's first and only full length studio album along with songs from EPs, compilation tracks, live recordings, and previously unreleased outtakes and demos.
According to singer Tim Kinsella, the title for the compilation was originally supposed to be "Anthroalphabetapoloanthology": "I thought of the name and then drove to Madison [Wisconsin] where Jason [Gnewikow, of the Promise Ring and graphic design firm The Collection Agency] lived, and I just typed it in. We were doing the layout and I was like, yeah, I guess that's the name, but I got home after the whole thing was laid out, and weeks later I realized I named it wrong. It was already printed."[2]
