Yes, from 1972, five years earlier than Jeff Lynne's ELO remake, and four
years before the release of "Boystown Boize" by the Boize.
The Boize were an early Boston band featuring longtime Lyres bassist Rick
Coraccio, who had yet to join DMZ at the time both bands appeared on the LIVE
AT THE RAT album. "Boystown Boize" was the flipside of the "Holiday Fire"
single on which the Boize backed Marc Thor, and Nancy I'm sure you can find
someone who has it (but I don't)...
