I found this CD digging through stacks of random early 90s albums a couple years ago. This is the first track. As far as I can tell, I think this is their only full CD, with a few vinyl EPs before it. They were a Boston-area band and ... that's really about all I know. But it's a great tune.

Nice find, garage bands, or whatever we call them now, rule. This reminds me a little of some friends' bands in the 80s in San Diego.

I'm at a stage where I want new-to-me music, but not necessarily current music. I've been diving into lesser known songs and artists from the hair band and grunge days. Tons of good things I've never heard.
