Turn It Around:The Story of East Bay Punk w/ Lest We Forget 2xCassette


Recommended Posts

Howdy,

 

This is a bit of a double dip but I really want to call this particular release out as much as I can. Somehow the Cometbus curated "Lest We Forget" has fallen further in to obscurity than I had previously thought! I guess that's what happens when a home made tape goes out of print for 27 years. Anyway read on below for full details and order at http://www.1234gorecords.com/turnitaround !

 

Limited to just 600 copies. This double cassette set brings you the "Turn It Around: The Story of East Bay Punk" soundtrack and 1-2-3-4 Go! is providing the first official repressing of the essential "Lest We Forget" all in one handy package.

 

"Turn It Around: The Story of East Bay Punk" is a sprawling audio companion to the documentary of the same name. You get 90 minutes of music over 35 mostly rare, unreleased and/or out-of-print tracks from bands like Green Day, Rancid, Neurosis, NOFX, Operation Ivy, Crimpshrine, Mr. T Experience, Jawbreaker, Pinhead Gunpowder, Filth, Blatz, Sweet Children, Isocracy and many more. This album is must-have for both new and old fans of the early East Bay punk scene.

 

As a bonus companion piece from 1-2-3-4 Go! Records, "Lest we Forget" was assembled by Aaron Cometbus from extremely rare demos, rehearsal & live tapes and originally released on his BBT Tapes label in 1991. This compilation provides a crucial document of the East Bay's pre-Gilman punk scene. Including the original bands of members who would go on to spawn; Rancid, Operation Ivy, Pinhead Gunpowder, Samiam, Neurosis amongst many others. We've teamed up with BBT Tapes to repress this essential document of early East Bay punk with new liner notes by Cometbus and freshly cleaned up audio on a professionally dubbed tape for the first time ever!

 

Together the listener gets a much fuller picture of the rich history of East Bay punk than any other release to date and a perfect companion piece to the "Turn It Around:The Story of East Bay Punk" documentary.

 

Proceeds from this release go to the Women's Daytime Drop In Center, a non-profit program in Berkeley, CA empowering women and children to move from the streets to a home by providing ongoing and intensive counseling, case management services, daily support groups, a comprehensive children’s program, a variety of referral services, and a transitional housing program for four single parent families.
