Notes

CD-R #22 - The Aliens, Keystone, Berkely, 1977

The Aliens live in Berkeley, 1977. It's a soundboard.
Roky's Manager used to hand these cassettes out for promotional purposes.
This has been bootlegged numerous times.
You might remember the title You Will Believe In Ghosts.
Well... This is taken direct off one of those tapes that was handed out back in the day.
It's not a 4th gen copy.
What's more, the signal was processed.
It sounds better than anything out there.
There are a very few, slight, tape dropouts but this tape IS old.
It's very slight and only in a few places.
The bottom line is that this is the best sounding recording of the Aliens live extant.
Is it Punk? Is it Metal? Is it Punk/Metal? You be the judge.
