In Spring 1977, Rick Rivets (ex-Brats) and Arthur Kane (ex-New York Dolls) decided it was time to join forces once more time. Stu Wylder was getting itchy to hit the stage. The demise of his previous group, Age, was in 1975. He was brought in on vocals and harmonica. Jimmy Criss (ex-Teenage Lust) became the group’s drummer in October.

The band was named after a low budget film. The band’s first appearance was on a Manhattan cable TV show in early October 1977 lip-synching two songs “Take What I Can” and “Bulldog”. Both of these tracks had been recorded in September with the aid of Bob Casper on piano, Mark Polott on bass and Stix Nickson on drums.

The first live performance took place at Great Gildersleeves, New York City on Halloween 1977. The band was plagued with sound problems, but the energy was overpowering. They played numerous New York clubs and monthly dates at Connecticut’s only punk haven, The Shandy Gaff in Devon. They soon had a loyal following that included Dead Boy Cheetah Chrome.

In 1978, four songs were recorded at Backstreet Studios in The Bronx: “Rites, 4 Whites”, “Mental Moron”, “Pretty Baby”, and “Diamond Head”. Out of this session, “Rites, 4 Whites” and “Mental Moron” were released as a single on Whiplash Records complete with a bizarre sex /death picture sleeve. Kane left the band in July 1978. He later joined The Idols along with another ex-Doll, Jerry Nolan.

To our regular customers outside Europe - unfortunately we have had to increase combined postage charges to non-European destinations. We have tried to hold off doing this for a long time but have been losing so much money on these packages that the increase is now unavoidable.

*********DOUBLES COUNT AS TWO*********

---------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT COMBINED SHIPPING ON ALL 12" VINYL / LPS / 12" EPS / 12" SINGLES - PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING CAREFULLY!!!!

We offer combined shipping on all LPs / 12" Vinyls: our shipping rates are listed above. HOWEVER shipping packages that weigh more than 2kg is VERY expensive. Therefore we can only offer combined shipping up to a maximum of SEVEN (7) LPs / 12" vinyls. Any extra purchases will be invoiced, packaged and shipped separately.

Sorry but I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks of auctions (see below).

---------------------------------------------------

PAYMENT

I would appreciate payment within seven days of the auction’s end. If you want to bid on more of my auctions ending a week later please inform me. I will wait and issue a combined invoice at the close of the second week’s auctions.

However, I am no longer willing to carry combined transactions beyond two weeks and in these cases would appreciate payment promptly after the close of the second week’s auctions.

I am sorry to have to introduce these measures – I always try to be patient and allow buyers to bid on extra auctions and / or delay payment. Unfortunately some buyers have been stretching out transactions to unacceptable lengths so I feel I have no option but to limit ‘carried over’ transactions to two weeks.
