Boston’s hard-rockin’ retaliation to the British Invasion, the Remains enjoyed a fairly remarkable career: you may have lucked into catching them on The Ed Sullivan Show or Hullabaloo, or maybe discovered ‘em as opening-slot upsetters on the Beatles’ final tour (“The Beatles weren’t any bigger,” exclaimed The Chicago American). Chances are slim that you witnessed the full-blast live brilliance of Barry Tashian and band at their Rathskeller ‘65 prime, but it at least makes for a vivid, skull-crushing fantasy, eh? As is poundingly evident on their recordings, Barry Tashian, Vern Miller Jr., Bill Briggs and Chip Damiani could lock together with an intensity that is amazing and unmatched.
"The first time I saw them was nearly two years ago. They had been together for about four months and this was to be their first concert appearance. When they were introduced they ran on stage,plugged into two Fender amps through which they were running all their equipment and two microphones, and smiled. Four soft syncopated chords and they broke into their first song at a volume which was for me beyond belief. The stage seemed literally to have exploded with Tashian jumping up and down while singing and playing lead, and Vern dancing around as he played bass, Briggs pounding his piano, and Chip destroying his drums. Stillness had exploded." John Landau - Crawdaddy Magazine - Jan. 67
