A FEW OF THE ITEMS WE WANT...

THE NERVES Live At The Pirate's Cove (2009 US exclusive limited edition 14-track LP pressed on YELLOW VINYL, capturing the legendary power pop trio live in action at the Pirate's Cove, Cleveland, Ohio on 26th May 1977 on their Magical Blistering Tour; this ¼-track analog tape recording was recently discovered and excised by guitarist Jack Lee - sound quality may not be up to modern day digital standards, but for sheer energy, enthusiasm anddazzling musicianship this can't be beat! Presented in sealed & stickered picture sleeve) ** Limited to 500 copies **

Tracklisting: 1. Are You Famous? 2. Stand Back And Take A Good Look 3. Walking Out On Love 4. Will You Come Through? 5. Working Too Hard 6. When You Find Out 7. Give Me Some Time 8. Any Day Now 9. Why Am I Lonely? 10. You Won't Be Happy 11. Letter To G. 12. Come Back And Stay 13. I Need YOur Love 14. Hanging On The Telephone
THE NERVES One Way Ticket (2008 US exclusive 20-track remastered CD album - at long last, the legendary Nerves finally get an official, non-bootleg career retrospective longplayer! Comprised of all available high quality recordings from 1976-1979, this set demonstrates just how important the group were, taking up the power pop reins from Big Star, The Raspberries and Flamin' Groovies. Formed in 1975 by guitarist Jack Lee, bassist Peter Case, and drummer Paul Collins, the Nervesare one of the most influential garage/punk pop outfits to come out of the mid-70's LA scene, and certainly one of the least documented... until now. Mostly remembered for their classic 'Hanging On The Telephone', a Jack Lee composition which has been covered over the years by a myriad of artists, the Nerves were above all a high energy rock'n'roll band with all three members composing and singing. Playing fast, ear-catching garage pop songs, sometimes wearing matching suits, the trio had more than a bit of the stripped down street energy of LA's early punk movement. Includes their 1976 self-released EP alongside rare live and demo recordings [2 of which are exclusive to this format], plus material from associated bands The Plimsouls and Breakaways, presented in digipak sleeve with rare photos and liner notes from Peter Case)
