I think these tracks might come from two different sets. Also, I work with a dude who was "around" in the San Francisco heyday of the late '70s and early '80s and he talks about random shows and bands alot and he mentioned 45 GRAVE a few days ago and I acknowledged that I had never really fucked with them and then that night I saw a flyer for an upcoming Oakland show with ALTAR DE FEY (update: it's tomorrow) and then later that night I ripped this tape and....well, I think I need to attend that show.

X

I'm constantly conflicted on X simply because history hasn't treated their fan base (or their vocalist) well, but goddamn this recording (their recordings) are brilliant. As great as the Club Foot recording is, hold fast until the handful of KBFH tracks recorded in 1984 please....you'll thank me. You're welcome.
