these tracks were recorded in 1987 by Oliver Rhee ( the boilers ) in the bathroom of Patrick Dougher ( drummer - boilers / dub side of the moon)
Remi Sammy recently found them collecting dust at her mother's basement she gave me ( Constant cb200) a call so we decided why not let the rest of the world hear how we took NYC hostage with this SKA music. the second step vs. the toasters was always a great battle at cbgb's. more to come.

YOU CAN ALWAYS BE SURE I WILL BE THERE THE NEXT TIME WE CAN ALL BE AT THE SAME PLACE AT THE SAME TIME.... SO LETS MAKE THAT HAPPEN!!!
WOW! Second Step! Its fantastic to hear those great songs. Especially Opportunity. Its fair to say you were a catalyst for the creation of Bigger Thomas (Panic! back in the day). We used to come to the Sunday ska matinees at CBGB's in 1986 and 1987 to see you and The Boilers and The Toasters and Urban Blight. The energy and the music influenced us to get a scene going in NJ. And the rest as they say is history. Thanks again for great music and great shows.
