real kids

...fantastic bundle of liveness from bostons real kids taken from shows in the explosive garage underground years of 76/78 when the suburbs were rocking once more...often get labelled as power pop by lazy 'johnny come lately' bozos but that shouldn't put rock'n'roll heads off because this is rocking with a capitol R,not limpo fab4 wannabees in skinny ties...layabouts who dig the second MC5 wax and prime era flamin groovies/dolls stonesian swagger and nuggets punk will get a fried atomic buzz from these chipper sounding excavations of solid blasting noise(dig the inbetween chat to grab some true rocking hepness, mentions of eddie cochran/mitch ryder working in a car plant/teddy and the pandas, this is all underground history when these tunes were taped, not retro-namedropping as it would be in the present 'play by numbers' era of information conformity)...tracks 1-9 come from a radio broadcast in may 78 and the rest go backwards in time taking in '77 c.b.g.b and the last six tunes come from their hometown hangout the rat in '76...all in all 24 beer soaked amphetamine snorting leather jacket quakes of rattling vibrations straight from coolsville...
