Hard sound punk/hardcore/harder-indie vinyl show on Gulls Window Circus. The show goes as far back as BOA’s 1974 Martha & The Vandellas cover and as recent as the Strange Club Records ‘Secret Futures’ comp, the Big Flame ‘Peel Sessions 84-86’ 10″, and the debut 7″ by Boston band Out Of The Blue (doing a Wipers cover). The idea for this show started with a re-evaluation of 7 Seconds ‘New Wind’ and Uniform Choice ‘Staring Into The Sun’ LPs (both at-the-time not particularly appreciated), then blossomed into a collection of tracks I though fit well with those records. You will also hear late-period Forgotten Rebels (’86 LP ‘The Pride And The Disgrace’), Big Boys doing a Kool & The Gang cover, Eighth Route Army’s final 7″ ‘Jesus DeMilo’ from 1988, The Nuns with a 1977 demo version of ‘Suicide Child’ that is way different than the version you know, and 2 tracks by the Dictators’s Scott Kempner band Del-Lords.
