about

A compendium of live tracks, out takes and snippets of radio interviews. The original release was an 86 minute Long Ryders authorized fan club cassette, which was edited for CD reissue by Overground and, more recently, Prima Records.

Fun-filled blistering rock’n’roll from the heart of the Paisley Underground this was praised by Rolling Stone in the USA when originally released back in 1988.

Our warehouse chief Toad says there are no copies left and it is going for big money on eBay!

The Long Ryders Los Angeles, California

The Long Ryders founded alt-country with their 1984 album, Native Sons, and helped codify and popularise Americana throughout their career.
