Take a quaalude now (Re-Up)


Me Want Breakfast: The Dangerhouse Collection (1987)
When I bought this, I thought it was the real deal: finally a reissue compilation of singles and 'Yes L.A.' tracks from one of the finest late 70's punk labels, Dangerhouse Records. I found out later it was a bootleg (explains the somewhat sub-par fidelity), but I'm still happy just to have some of the rare tracks missing from my 7" bins. For this hdvns version I used the original 7"s whenever possible. Read the Dangerhouse story on break my face.

It's worth it




The Dils 'I Hate The Rich' (1977), '198 Seconds Of...' (1977) and 'Made In Canada' (1980) 7"s
A trio of singles by a trio called the Dils. And that was, sadly, it. The first two are absolute must-have punk classics. 'Made In Canada' while no less worthy, forms the basis for the Kinman Bros. future as Rank and File ("Sound of the Rain" was even re-recorded for their second LP). Les Dils règle!
