Description

HOW DO YOU KNOW / DON'T GIVE IT UP NOW

7inch

LABEL: SOUNDS INTERESTING

YEAR: 1979

CONDITION SLEEVE: VG (look good BUT has light creasing and 2inch split left edge,  please see scans for best idea of condition)

CONDITION VINYL: VG/VG++ (nice sheen on both sides only a light mark or two on the "Don't Give it up Now" side and on the other there ARE some noticable longer surface marks that you can see but do not seem to affect the play much meaning NO SKIPS or extended pops or clicks )

THIS RECORD PLAYS WITH SOME SURFACE NOISE AT LEAD IN AND TRAIL OFF GROOVES BUT WHEN THE MUSIC GETS GOING IT IS STRONG AND CLEAR. AND THERE ARE NO SKIPS OR EXTENDED POPS/CLICKS BUT THIS IS NOT A MINT RECORD BUT IS A DECENT COPY FOR ITS AGE WITH SOME SPECIFIC ISSUES AND CONSIDERING HOW RARE IT IS I FIGURED IT WAS STILL WORTH PUTTING UP FOR SALE AS IT IS FAR FROM DESTROYED

LONG OUT OF PRINT

Biography

by John Dougan

Few bands in Boston rock & roll history have lasted as long, and made as much good music, as Lyres. Led by garage rock obsessive, record collector, Farfisa organ king, and world-class megalomaniac Jeff "Monoman" Conolly, Lyres rose from the ashes of Conolly's first band, DMZ. Sporting a similar high-energy trash-rock sound indebted to the Seeds, ? & the Mysterians, the Stooges, and the early British Invasion (especially early Kinks), Lyres, for a brief, shining moment, were the kingpins of Boston's punk rock scene. Resembling venerable British blues-rockers Savoy Brown because of a constantly changing lineup (something like 40 musicians have passed through the ranks), Lyres (or more specifically, Monoman) gleefully party on, oblivious of trends or the assorted vagaries of the alternative rock marketplace. A dinosaur in his own right? Perhaps, but as long as Jeff Conolly has his organ, a few guys behind him, and a place to play, the simple joy that can only be had through rock & roll will exist in this world -- hipness be damned!
