  IMPORTANT NOTE: I haven't had a turntable since last century, so this sale needs to be considered "as is," but I will describe everything the best I can. This album was rarely played, and I would be shocked if it has been on a turntable more than a few times. I'm not a "record seller," and I don't know "grading," so you'll have to deal with my descriptions. If you're not happy after the sale, just contact me. I don't give PARTIAL refunds, but I WILL make sure you're satisfied.

DEAD BOYS
Young, Loud And Snotty (LP, 1977) Sire SR 6038 Excellent Condition. PROMO. Includes a UNIQUE Signature.
Outstanding condition. PROMO copy. The top right front has a slightly bent corner (see pic) and there's some handling wear on the bottom left and spine (see pic). The vinyl has a few very light markings that should not effect play whatsoever, and a scuff on side A, track one that might... on the same side as a unique "signature" on the Side A label (see pic), which belongs to a famous DJ/Radio Programmer, Neal Mirsky (look him up). The guy was fixture of radio and programming since the early 70s. This record came directly from him when he worked at Tampa radio WQXM, 97.9 in Clearwater (98 ROCK). He was the Program Director there before going on to bigger and better things. So... where most albums that have someone's name written on it is usually just a nuisance to deal with... think of this one as an "autograph" from a future big wig in the industry. (Yeah... I know that's stretching the point, but it IS legit.)

ALL MUSIC GUIDE 4-1/2 Star REVIEW Fellow Cleveland types Pere Ubu may have won the artistic kudos for their adventurous, surprising work, but if the goal was just to rock and rock, the Dead Boys had them totally trumped. As both title phrase and capsule description, Young, Loud & Snotty accurately defines the predominating aesthetic so well that one could just leave it at that, but there's a lot more going on here than on the face of it. With perhaps surprising great production from semi-famous '70s rocker Genya Ravan, the five-some found something sonically smack in-between the US garage/punk heritage of the past and the more modern thrashings from overseas. Bators sneers, gobs, gasps, and whines with the best of them, but he knows his rock history, as does his bandmates. Zero and Chrome aren't guitar virtuosos, but they do know what makes a song great and aren't afraid to concentrate on that, while the Magnum/Blitz rhythm section keeps things moving as it does. In some ways songs like "All This and More" and "I Need Lunch" simply emerge from an alternate '50s, with admittedly much more feedback and stereo sound. Stone cold rock classic "Sonic Reducer" starts things off - amusingly - with all sorts of phased drums and other fripperies that later generations wouldn't consider punk at all. That said, it's still blunt, brilliantly sung by Bators and kicks out the jams with messy energy. Other all-time greats include the perfect bored-and-needing-kicks anthem "Ain't Nothin' to Do" and the thoroughly wrong "Caught With the Meat In Your Mouth." There's even a rock oldie - a cover of "Hey Little Girl" live onstage at spiritual home CBGB's. And why not? With great punk rock and great rock, Young, Loud and Snotty still packs a punch.
