Unnatural Axe produced a "classic Boston punk record in 1978 - They Saved Hitler's Brain. Their live shows were sheer energy. They were young, dumb, and inspired..." from Boston Groupie News
New from Dr. K, Oct. 2007: The Cure: 1980 "A Forest" played just two locations on their first US Tour in 1980 before returning to England. NYC @ Hurrah’s and the next night Boston @ The Underground Club. The single “A Forest” had just been released in England and performed live for the first time in the US.
This month KINODV has a live video cut of “A Forest” from the show in Boston.
First time watch for anyone:
Fabulous Billygoons
Years before the Beastie Boys learned to party or rap, a crew of Boston goons hung out at the Broad St. gym -- there were even bowling team jackets, as I recall. Very late nights, and the sun coming up as we ate at the New York deli -- long gone places. The gym was heated by a stove. Lester slept on a five-foot square piece of foam rubber. Made on April 1, 1982, the Billygoon Party Rap was rejected by MTV in 1983 as "Unfit For Programming Practices."
Lowell Blues: the words of Jack Kerouac
