CLASSIC RUINS - Ruins Cafe

CLASSIC RUINS Ruins Cafe lp 1989
Tony And Karen / Russian Hands / Hurt That Way* / It Wasn't Too Late / Ruin's Cafe / Hedda Humma* / Don't Call Here / Lullabye of Boomland / This Means War* / Nick of Time.
Produced by The Classic Ruins & G. Hookailo.
Classic Ruins: F. Rowe: vocals, guitar / C. Hurley: bass guitar / P. Nardone: drums, vocals / C. Biancucci: bass**
Formed in 1978 by Frank Rowe (x-Baby's Arm) and Billy Borgioli (x-Real Kids), Classic Ruins are still at it today, playing their garage punk as if onstage at the Rat .Longtime bassist Carl Biancucci is still in the fold, as is ex-Commandos/Ballbusters guitarist Jeff Crane on second guitar,and former V drummer Matt Burns. The "boys" are older now,and while not necessarily wiser, they still sound pretty great - Link Wray would be proud - so don't be a stranger.

"Ruin's Cafe"is their second lp recorded in 1989 on Presto and New Rose Records. Don't miss it ! It's Boston rock & they know how to rock...
You can buy it HERE or HERE (only vinyl) !

Un album d'un groupe trop méconnu de la scène de Boston.
Ruins Cafe est un excellent LP, "Lullabye of Boomland" raconte l'histoire de ces groupes de Boston qui brillèrent avant de se cramer ("they were real, they were Kids.."). Une magnifique chanson de Franck Rowe qui a composé de vrais classiques validés par les connaisseurs (geraldine, rooms start spinning, the Madison...)
Les Classic Ruins que Alpo avait défini sarcastiquement comme l'éternel groupe pour bars, sont toujours la aujourd'hui. Franck Rowe est un compositeur guitariste impeccable, quant a Carl, pour l'avoir vu live au Midway cafe avec les Ruins, son jeu de basse est époustouflant. Merci d'avoir choisi de partager Ruins Cafe la suite oubliée de "Lassie eats chiken".
