Many collectors are just now exploring the sounds from the underground in that wonderful period 1977-'82. The majority of the local recordings from that time were made in such small quantities, that now all these years later they're not only very rare, they've gotten very expensive. When I put together this collection of tracks for KDGE-FM in Dallas back in '92, it served two purposes. One was to have our usual limited edition of tracks from the best of the new underground bands. On this collection we had the pleasure of including bands like Rumble, Half Inch Soul, Whitey, Little Sister, The Willees, Two Hoots & A Holler, and Nick Brisco. There were 18 in all, each a shining example of the best new sounds from Texas at the time. On the second disc was a collection of new wave and punk tracks from 1979-'83. Most of these were mastered off the original tapes of these songs and are far cleaner than any surviving vinyl. There are many previously unreleased tracks here, including never-before heard performances by VVV Records artists Bobby Sox, NCM, The Ralphs and the Ft. Worth Cats.
