The B-sides - Unreleased Tracks
A while ago i posted The B-sides first 7", which when it first came out, led to Maximum rock'n'roll pressing their next record in a matter of months. It caused a buzz in the record collector dork community, being the first record MRR had released in a decade or more. Not long after, the band got a letter from an Italian band called The Willy Wonkas that said something like "You motherfuckers are the coolest motherfuckers ever, let's do a motherfucking split 7 inch motherfuckers". So the b-sides recorded their half, mailed it to Italy and sadly, never heard from The Willy Wonkas again. A while later Rory gave me a copy of the tracks to use on a compilation of bay area bands that never came out. It almost did, I got scammed by a guy on AOL claiming to be an employee of a pressing plant who could an employee discount an wanted to help DIY bands. It was easy to be gullible in the earlier days of the internet.
