Both are bootlegs (of course) on Merlin and Move labels. The sound is quite good considering the source and both disc contain the original cover art and liner notes.

The Makers are good, even great, but the Neckbreakers two LPs are more cohesive, provide more listening enjoyment and I always think that there's just something missing in the Makers stuff along with *most* of the bands that play in the garage-punk genre.

I >was thinking of buying that or the new Makers album. Are you talking about the Makers LP with the middle finger on the cover? If so, I'd definitely choose The Swingin' Neckbreakers' album. Of course, if it was between Shake Break and the first full-length Makers' LP, Howl, I'd probably recommend the Makers. Even so, the first Neckbreakers' LP would take the cake. I *would* however, recommend you buy that Makers' double-7" on SFTRI. I've also heard that their latest double-7" (on Estrus, I think) is another killer.

"Shake Break" is bloody well worth it--but then again, I found it for $5.99 at a used CD section. Most discriminating fans consider it better than "Live for Buzz," but I actually prefer that one. I haven't heard the other disc you asked about, but the singer of that band can't compare to the Neckbreakers' George Thoroughgood-looking mailman howler. - --Deena in NYC. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 01 Mar 1997 22:06:14 +0000 From: Steve Coleman Subject: Re: ? and the Mysterians At 23:53 28/02/97 -0800, Matt wrote: >bought a copy of an Italian CD of ? and the Mysterians' first album, and it >sounds very nice. This is an Italian "import"... >Anyone else own this CD or know anything about it? Care has definitely been put into this package. If you are not too unhappy with the "import" tag purchase this CD ASAP. The four additional tracks are fabulous, even if they came out a couple of years after the first album. 'Ain't it a Shame' is just waiting to be covered by someone. A fantastic and broody ? put down. One thing about the CD, the player on my PC sometimes rejects it, works fine on the Hi-Fi CD player though. Anyone else had this problem?
