THE JACKIE EARLE HALEYS - The Unreleased Tapes

Dug up some stuff from the vault.I was supposed to release this last year at this time,as there was a song to be pulled from this session,(our last full recording,recorded,mixed ,mastered and put to cassette ,all in one night!),that was slated for the 100 band compilation ,"Big Tit Hoagie" ,which has still not got it's shit together ,and gotten released yet,sheesh! Myself was on vocals,lyrics,and drums,mostly,maybe a little guitar as well.Billy Drake,did all lead guitars,and was/is the greatest guitarist I've ever known.Even though this band was based on 70's bands like T.Rex,Sweet,Kiss,Slade,and other rock and hard rock bands,Billy was as knowlegeable at  70's rock as he was at psych,folk,flamenco,grunge,and any other style you may want to mention.As well as being a multi-instrumentalist,as most all of us were in the close-knit Ft. Myers scene.Vance Burdge ,my best pal,is on bass,and some guitars as well.He did the recordings thru an analog 4-track cassette recorder,the same kind of old machinery that I still use til this day.Vance also mixed this stuff ,I believe,It may have been me,we both would do those duties,sometimes both of us would do our own mix,so there would be different versions /mixes ,of the songs.Vance is one of the most talented musicians I know of,multi-instrumental,plus studio ,mix,master,recording know-how.Anyway,back to these recordings,10 tracks of 70's styled rock,although we were getting a little bit too far away from home here,straying off into ballads,blues,funk,southern-rock,a cover of a Supersuckers tune,and a handful of tunes that both musically and lyrically,hearken back to our beginnings.When the band started it was just me and Vance.Billy joined ,eventually ,because he was usually hanging out while Vance and I were writing songs.At one point ,we had a full -line-up adding Mike Smith on drums,and recorded 3 practice sessions,2 of which I have,and need to upload.The first Haleys release was cobbled together from almost every tape session we recorded.There were many songs left off,and there will be a new compilation posted here,soon,as well as those live sessions.We were practicing so we could play gigs,but our drummer didn't really like the "rock and roll" sound of the band and left soon after.We never played live,but Vance and I did acoustic versions of a couple Haleys tracks at an open mic night at The Draft House in downtown Ft. Myers,back when it was a shit hole,and not all glitzy and glamorous like today.We did record one more song after this session,our last tune is called ,"(I Wanna Be A) Busboy",and is on the first compilation ,found elsewhere on this blog,if you want to hear the sound of a band making it happen,even in the face of breaking up.There's more to come,don't be sad.This isn't our best work,but it still ranks up there .

SKINDUST - New Album

No truth in the title! Well ,it is a new release ,but of an old ,unreleased session.Lots of shitcore singing ,yelling and even some rudimentary tard-rap! There is some music here ,but it is mostly dumb doo-wopping ,young jits ,gettin' the shitcan movin'!Really funny shit ,I listened to it at work the other day ,and almost lost it! Another example of the fine noisecore scene ,going down in Seattle , former home of grunge.

STRYKER - Ride The Lightning

This is an extremely rare collection of,demos,out-takes ,and unreleased stuff ,from my high school chum's band ,Stryker. I know many people out there are looking for more of this classic mid-80's hard rock/heavy metal band. This is after the album was released,and Steve and Sarah were living on the fish farm.Sarah sings in her Pat Benatar/Lita Ford style, Steve does some vocals,and he brought in another singer,I think his name was Mark? He sounds like Rob Halford of Judas Priest fame,and the music is of the same mold.There is some humor ("Frogheads",about old folks) ,an Alice Cooper chestnut, some instrumentals,and a few songs that almost resemble Rush! "The Last Free Man" ,is close to sounding similar to Rush's "Tom Sawyer",and "Spirit" ,is also in that realm.This is the only copy of these recordings,and on my posting of their only album , I included 10 more unreleased tracks,in case you didn't notice, (get it here :http://www.mediafire.com/?nndtl2igtgz) ,which are in line with what we have here.Last I heard ,Steve was composing music for various video games. I'd like him to contact me ,and maybe I can get some more Stryker stuff from him! Thanks ,Steve and Sarah ,for all the tunes,and all the good times!If you are at all into any metal , this will get your blood pumping!

THE GENTLEMEN -A Bunch Of Junk (Unreleased Acetate)

There were,and probably still are,a slew of bands known as the Gentlemen.This is one of them.They sound like some amateurish cover band,trying to break into the garage scene,in the mid to late 60's.Their version of ,"Hang On Sloopy"(which I recently found to be slang for a turd which won't detatch from it's exit tunnel),must be heard to be believed.The vocals are horrible,as in great,the bass sounds beautifully untuned,and the beat is slightly off-kilter.Then to follow up with an accordian led version of ,"Mack The Knife",is just ridiculous.The tune on the other side,does not appear to be the same band.A clue may be written on the sleeve I got the record in(from pal,Ralph Tarantino,owner of Ft. Myer's Record Trader) It reads ,:"Joe Hurley Remote (Stereo)".Anyone with a clue about this recording,get with me,thanks!Enjoy this extremely rare,unreleased acetate recording!

SAMHAIN -Last Gasp -Live & Demos 85-86

DWARVES -Penetration Moon

While waiting for the Dwarves new album ,(The Dwarves Are Born Again) to arrive,I give you this totally obscure,rare ,and unreleased set,probably recorded in the transition period between the psych Dwarves,and the hardcore Dwarves sound.This disc belies their influences,as they run thru 10 covers,mostly of unknown garage bands,but also GG Allin,The Dead Boys,Johnny Thunders and The Heartbreakers,and more.Great studio recording,I know hardly anyone has heard this,and you will be happy you did!
