VERY RARE BLOOD-RED VINYL FIRST PRESSING!!!
The Remains
USA - Spoonfed Records SSD
STONE MINT - TOP - FINAL COLLECTION COPY!
Original (rare) collectible first vinyl pressing from 38 years ago a limited blood-red vinyl album that contains the harder to find stereo masters to the legendary 1966 Epic album plus 4 more previously unreleased circa '66 tracks in the same vein as the storied album. 14 essential tracks in all
There was a moment in the 1960's when The Remains seemed destined to conquer the world. They didn't....but they were for a period, the most exciting American band of their time. These recordings can only suggest the power of their live performances and provide us with a glimmer of the force that made them a true rock and roll legend-The Remains.
These boys should need no introduction -- along with Paul Revere & the Raiders probably the finest exponents of the upmarket mid-60s US teen-rock that has aged as well or even better than the more famous UK groups they competed with. Great stuff, they should have been millionaires.
The Remains were a great 1966 "garage" rock band best remembered for "Don't Look Back," a Boston-only garage rock hit, later anthologized on the original Lenny Kaye compilation, Nuggets (Elektra, 1972).
The Remains opened for the Rolling Stones in 1965 and for the Beatles on their final US tour in August 1966. They recorded an album on Epic Records that now demands a small fortune due to its terrific appeal and amazing solid songs within. Just 12 years later, in 1978 legendary Boston area music executive Bruce Patch released the legendary 1966 Epic album by the Remains on this Spoonfed Records label, augmenting the ten stereo songs from the original LP with four more, circa 1966 additional mono tracks. With the grooves cut into delicious red vinyl, this 1978 (now very rare) limited edition is almost as much of a collectors' item as the band's Epic Records debut. For the fans who played that debut into the ground, the addition of "Heart," "Don't Look Back," "Thank You," and "Say You're Sorry" expands the experience. "Once Before" sounds as lovely and British Invasion as ever, while "Time of Day" features that great separation of tambourine and fuzz tone. Billy Briggs' keys add just enough spice to confirm that all the reverence for the group is justified.
"Barry" was lead singer and guitarist Barry Tashian. The other band members were keyboardist Bill Briggs, drummer N.D. Smart, and bassist Vern Miller.
