BEATFOR112

Recorded in mono and produced by Milk N’ Cookies leader Ian North in 1975, this Legendary Knickers lonely disc is a fresh primitive 60’s garage-pop, that supposedly was the band's demo tape. A rumour went around about their members: Ian North, the Blondie Jimmi Destri, Ira Robbins of Trouser Press fame… never clarified by North.

The Badbeats were a power pop group from New York in the late 70's, who began recording songs that were written by The Beatles, but never released in USA by The Beatles. John Sheridan played drums and guitars on their first record, Bill Kern played guitar and vocals, and Barry Knoedl, bass and vocals.
Later, John recorded a single bringing out some of his country rock influence on this great song.

According to an early issue of Trouser Press, "The Bees were a NYC outfit whose growing reputation was snapped when the bassist and guitarist were hired away by David Johansen" (They credited him with a "no thanks to" on the third 45).The other half of the Bees went to form the Bounce. http://bubblegum.the.punk.free.fr/.
Ruby is a vintage favorite from their first extended play.
