In my never ending quest to find all musical things New Jersey i have unearthed this weird little private Rock nugget. It was recorded at Trax East in South River N.J. by a good friend of mine Eric Rachel. it kinda has a somewhat Punk or Punky vibe. And I'm sure if it was from 1978 instead of 1984 it would be a high dollar KBD? (Ha Ha) item. Either way I'm lost on the Hey Leo "where'd you get the hat" joke. But it aint too bad of a tune. Your Fool is a more straight up Power Pop (poop) tune. Not too shabby. I kinda dig it. It sounds a little bit like Ace Frehley from KISS on vocals.... Looks like he has another 7 inch from 1981 but I've never seen or heard it. Got any info?

I like it!
ReplyDeleteI wish I knew about that hat...
Awesome too that it was recorded by Eric Rachel. I don't know him at all, but it would be great to talk to him and see if he remembers and what he has to say about it.
ReplyDeleteu know h.p. i should call him and ask him about it!!!
ReplyDeleteDidn't see you already posted this one. Terry has three singles - this is his second - and was also originally the guitarist in Jigs & The Pigs.
ReplyDeleteFirst single is here:

I'll probably post the third single soon just for completion sake. The chorus to one side is just 'Don't Talk To Me' with different lyrics
awesome! thanks collin!
ReplyDeleteHow funny... I randomly googled the lyrics to Hey Leo when it popped into my head out of nowhere. I first heard it about 10-12 years ago on WFMU... Crazy eh?
