What is there to say about such a great record like this? Absolutely flawless from start to finish. Yepp here’s another gem that Erich of Good Bad Music posted some time ago but his links are dead so here we go. The punch on this recording just hits me every time. Great playing, great songs and a tasty production.

Guitarist Eddie Vincent and drummer Tad, having played together in Los Angeles with various bands since the early seventies, found themselves in London after touring Europe and North Africa with Swiss rocker and performance artist Bernard Constantin during the famous punk summer of 1977.

    links from TechnoratiAlso in the music blog world this week: Garage Hangover takes a long look at The Cranabeats. KBD keeps it pounding with an e.p. of short songs by Australian art-punks Seems Twice. But even better are the two simple songs by The Hollywood Squares. A good rule of thumb: pretty much any punk song about the Hillside Strangler is worth a listen. Some early demos from Suicide. Here’s a lovely German oddity, The Tanzdiele. I have to agree that the b-side

    Perfect punk rock! Two great rockin’ songs full of attitude & bite. I’ve heard that the LP recently released by some Italian label is pretty crappy, apart from these two greats. Honestly, do labels have to release EVERY recording a band makes?! Some things are best left unreleased. Anyhow, great choice, Peter!
