VARIOUS - LIVE AT THE RAT (1976)
Originally called T.J.'s and The Rathskeller, the club changed name to
the Rat in 1975 and played a vital part in helping the underground music
scene. Jim Harold produced ten bands (nineteen songs) which were
featured on this Bostonian answer to the "Live at CBGB's"
album. Some of the bands (The Real Kids, DMZ and Willie Alexander Boom
Boom Band) achieved cult status while most of the others disappeared or
had some success under new monickers (e.g Tom Dickie from Susan). The
most outstanding track (at least IMHO) of the album being Marc Thor's "Circling L.A.".
The Real Kids, DMZ and Willie Alexander Boom
Boom Band got their full performances released years later. The album was remastered and reissued in 2013, but this is the 1976 2LP's original edition which was never posted in FLAC on PPC.
