“Complete Recording 1976-79”

Swami Records SWA118

Double LP Released in 2003

This is a fantastic compilation that collects the entire recorded works of this legendary punk band.  Sonny Vincent, especially, was known for his insane stage antics, and wild costumes.  This is a two record set, and includes all of their known studio material as well as studio demos, live recordings from Max’s & CBGB’s, and other rarities.  Eight tracks have never been released before and many others come from rare self-released singles.  An incredible document of a little-known band, and an important archive from the early days of punk.

Grading is done according to the Goldmine Grading Standards using the following scale: Mint/NM/VG/G/P with the appropriate + or - to further describe the condition.  Please click here for my Complete Grading Criteria.  “Mint” is essentially new, and “Poor” is essentially unplayable.  I do not use ‘Excellent’ in my grading model because Goldmine doesn’t use it, and it has no standard meaning.  I have 19 years of experience with the Goldmine system, and grade conservatively so you’ll have no surprises.
