NO RESERVE RARE SUICIDE COMMANDOS MAKE A RECORD LP ALBUM This is an extremely rare Punk album on Blank Records. If you have this, you are lucky. If not, here is your chance to own it. 1 of the guys is wearing Converse sneakers/tennis shoes!! How Cool! Genre: "PUNK" Rock - 1978 RECORD IS LIKE NEW AND THIS HAS THE ORIGINAL INNER ALBUM SLEEVE Every other one I've seen online go from $70 on up - This will go to winning bidder, even at the starting price if you win! The Suicide Commandos were an American punk rock trio from Minneapolis, Minnesota. They formed in 1975 and released two 7" EPs on an indie label in 1976 and 1977 before signing with Blank Records (a subsidiary label of Mercury Records) in 1977. Their first album, Make A Record was recorded and released in 1978, and then re-released on CD in 1996. A live album, The Suicide Commandos Commit Suicide Dance Concert was released in 1979, which was their last performance together before the band broke up. Only 1,000 copies were pressed. In 2000 it was re-released on CD by Garage D'Or Records. The original vinyl release contained 19 tracks while the CD re-release increased this figure, bringing the total number of tracks to 32. Despite their short 4-year stint together, the Suicide Commandos were considered the pioneers for jump-starting a punk rock music scene in the Twin Cities, which eventually produced bands like the Suburbs, Hüsker Dü, The Replacements and Soul Asylum. Their 1977 song "Burn It Down" inspired a short film directed by rock video pioneer Chuck Statler, which featured the burning of a house the band had used for rehearsing for several years. The band was a headline act at the Minnesota State Fair in 2007; their music was used for a Target commercial in 2004. Ahl and Osgood were street corner musicians in St. Paul for the 2008 Republican convention. On January 17, 2009 the Suicide Commandos played a benefit at Nick & Eddie in Minneapolis for Laura Kennedy, bassist and founding member of the NYC no-wave band the Bush Tetras, who had recently received a liver transplant. David Thomas of Pere Ubu was guest vocalist. THIS IS A RARE DISC! There are no major apparent flaws, item sold as is. It is a cutout version, punched hole in lower right of album cover, does not affect the record. See photos for complete condition.
