R.K.L.- Demo Master xfer from band archive cassette tape Rich Kids on LSD

Since RKL is touring Europe right now, I figured I would post this one… but don’t get too excited about it, despite the title. This appears to be a collection of unreleased average quality live tracks and studio versions of songs that appeared on official releases. I Shazam’d a couple of them and they were on that Mystic Records comp released in the late 80s.
At least the cassette artwork is cool. I assume that is Barry’s handiwork.

Junkyard- Unknown Location (San Diego?) 1989 Xfer from master VHS Juni Bravo Archive

JUNI BRAVO ARCHIVE: I bought a bunch of live VHS tapes of Ebay about 6 months ago. I bought them mainly for a Bad Religion Multicam from 1988 that was uncirculated, but I got a while box of VHS tapes. The tapes were intriguing enough for me to try to find out who Juni is- it turns out that she was a Video archivist from the mid- to late-80s based in San Diego & texas. She followed the Exploited on tour in 1988 and produced the “Anarchy in the USA” VHS tape for them. She passed away a couple of years ago and (unbeknownst to me) some guy was selling her stuff off. I decided to post the stuff that was OK to post publicly to be sure Juni got her due, and to let fans of the band see this stuff- there is some gold in here. I also NEED YOUR HELP with some of this stuff. The tapes were poorly labeled so I don’t know who some of the bands are, and I don’t know most of the venues. Any help identifying stuff is appreciated.

Recorded by: Juni Bravo

Los Mocos- Practice at Joey’s, Stockton Ca 1989 Transfer f/Master Audio Cassette Punk

Here is an obscure one- Los Mocos was a punk band who never played live. This practice tape is one of the only, if not THE only, document of the band. The band had Eric Torres on guitar, who later went on to play with Moist and So.

Race Train Schizo- 1985 & 1988 Demos Sacramento Magnolia Thunderfinger Seizure Salad

This one from Ken Doose’s collection is a bit confusing. The tape says “Race Train KDVS” and it sounds like Race Train Schizo… but this sounds WAY too good to be a live in studio A session. Not bagging on the sessions, I love them, but this sounds like it was a produced demo. It is not the self-titled demo released by the band in 1988. So, wow.

A couple of the guys in this band went on to do more stuff. T-Bone went on to play in Magnolia Thunderfinger. Ronnie Doss went on the play in Seizure Salad, who gained notoriety for having a 7″ illustrated by Mad Marc Rude among other things. They were popular in tape trading circles for sure.

Haunted Garage- The Chatterbox, San Francisco Ca Late 80s Transfer f/1st gen DVCam tape Metal Blade

This is one of the best sounding Chatterbox videos so far. One channel was really low and that helped, I just copied left channel to right and viola, better audio!
This was likely during their pre-metal blade days when they did a 7″/cassingle with Sympathy for the Record industry.
