Various - People Are Hungry Compilation Volume 1#

People Are Hungry Compilation Volume 1# from 1986 on Inward Visions Records. Carl Casanova from Psycho Sin was the man behind IVR and put out a bunch of comps back in the day. This was done with all local bands from the NY & NJ area and was supposed to help open up a soup kitchen in Jersey City New Jersey. I doubt that ever happened as i can't image these sold all that well...!? Anyway this is a fun romp and brings me back to those days. The quality is a bit dubious, as these i'm sure were all hand done by Carl is his bedroom. These early School of Violence tracks kick ass! Also: Beware seems to be Psycho Sin in disguise????

Godspeed Live @ The Cafe Bar Long Branch NJ - TV Eye

Just found this tape. Its a really amped up live version of The Stooges TV Eye done by Godspeed, followed but a big E Jam @ the end of the set. Godspeed always did these big jams at the end of the set and usually had people join them on stage to create even more havoc. One of the many who would join them on stage was Ted Mechanic. Ted was an old Poet. He must have been in his mid/late 60's and he was great. He was always out at shows and supporting the youngins back then. He would jump on stage at the end of Godspeed shows and rant and rave his poetry over the chaos and din of feedbacking guitars and noise. From the scrawl on the tape this looks like a show played with Daisy Cutter & John Butler joins Godspeed on stage at the end as well. Anyway, this goes out to anyone who knew Ted and I'm sure they would all say what a great guy he was. R.I.P. Ted. You were an awesome cat and you are missed...
