Taper Notes:
View NotesAfter a bit of a hiatus on my part, I am back with another one of Harrison’s incredible recordings. Here, another completely uncirculated Minutemen show, along with the opening set by Boston’s own FU’s. Certainly a bit of an odd combination, the FU’s were known fer their Pro-American policy stance, while the Minutemen were fervent radicals, but I give ya both. Of course the FU’s were kinda immortalized in the Dead Milkmen’s “Tiny Town” (“we hate blacks and we hate jews \ we hate punks, but we love the FU’s”), but their politics have never even come close to that kinda (lack of) mentality. Much of the bad rap they got fer the political thing they brought on themselves by feeding in to some bad press they got from MR&R’s Tim Yohannon and posing on a tank, and using some old patriotic album cover as their own fer ‘My America’. They don’t touch the “This Is Boston….Not LA” fury here, but it’s still a fun set. The Minutemen set is why yer here, though. Don’t lie! They rule. I have never heard a bad show by them. They continually deliver. They sound as fresh today as they ever did. I sure miss that D. Boon guy. As with all of Harrison’s recordings, masters were ditched in place of 1st gen recordings; cutting out gaps and pauses and including both sets on a 90M cassette etc. That makes this the lowest known gen still in existence. God bless him fer allowing me the honor of transferring these gems!
