Anything I'll say will be self-serving but I have to bounce off a bit w/
what Drew says above because the last few weeks we have been getting a lot
of feedback from folks on this one....like wickedly surprised feedback with
'holy cows!" sprinkled inside the musings.
Give the soundbites and description on the Not Lame homepage....it's right
there at the top......this is one of those type of obscure gems that many
Auditeers say 'this should come out on CD!" and, guess what, here it is.
Problem is..this band was so obscure back in the early/mid 80's(they never
managed to get a proper release out in their strongest heydays because they
were good enough to get 'real' record deals...but tragedy and industry
politics de-railed anything getting out....details in the liners), few even
here on Audities have heard of them.
Check it out.
Peace,
Bruce
