about

Culled from live cassettes and other shady sources, this collection includes several instrumental tracks recorded for 1982's 'Discover: the bones' sessions, assorted rehearsal rarities and 5 live tunes from the Infamous 'Man Overboard' Booze Cruise, a 1984 fund raiser for a Candidate for Representative of East Boston, on which Joe says he actually got to use the line "What are you running for Rep?", and an impolite guest was thrown over the side into Boston Harbor by a few of Joe's friends from home [Jeffries Point, Eastie].

Joe Harvard recommends:

ONE ep
by Bareface

Solid songs & DIY, no nonsense recordings. Sweet. Joe Harvard
go to album
St. Sebastian of the Short Stage (EP)
by Franz Nicolay

This LP has a nicely boisterous cover of the Modern Lovers' "New England", plus some cool bell timbres & a neat story line on "Ballad of Hollis Mason Wadsworth Jr". The other tunes are cool too. Joe Harvard

Hopelessness
by 117

117 is the brainchild of Ben Ross, & Hopelessness aptly provides the same gritty, powerful, often wry material their live sets have become known for. Joe Harvard
