Tales From The Edge Vol. 9 & 10
Another dig into the vault for a Deep Ellum roots CD |
July 1994 |
|
On this next Tales From The Edge are new recordings of the best then-current, 1994 Texas underground bands. On it you'll find The NIXONS before they signed with MCA singing "Wire," Tablet (before signing with Mercury), another great track from Alejandro Escovedo, and the cool rockabilly of the Lone Star Trio. TRACK LISTING:
When 'Tales From The Edge Vol. 5/6 came out, I had a lot of requests to do a follow-up second volume of the lost but not forgotten tracks from the scene in Deep Ellum during the glory days of Theater Gallery, Prophet Bar and the Twilight Room. There's probably not a single recording in this set that is available elsewhere, and most are making their only appearance on CD, ever. All were taken from original source tapes and sound brilliant. Many of these recordings have never before been released and include a pre-Geffen Records cut from the New Bohemians, the first demos from the Buck Pets, a bit from Alejandro Escovedo when he was fronting the fabulous True Believers, and a combo that would evolve into Pop Poppins. Even the Timbuk 3 track is unique to this CD – and had never been previously released. TRACK LISTING:
