MDL- Demo 2018 M.D.L. Mental Defective League Ground Chuck Audio

I saw Ground Chuck giving away CD’s at the colonial cafe one night, so I asked for one. It happened to be the MDL demo. Thanks Chuck! I also asked if I could post it to the archive and he said something unintelligible back to me, but I think I heard “don’t care” in there somewhere. I worry because the MDL FB site (which has been dormant for months) said something about a new album being done.. so if the band wants it pulled down to sell somewhere, let me know.

Band Members:
Ground chuck: singer
Ben: drums
Mike: guitars
Jeff: bass guitar

Crude Studs- Self Titled Cassette Album/Demo 2017 xfer from master cassette

Big thanks to Dal at Phono Select for giving me this tape to post- he might have more for sale at the shop. You should go shop there- best record store around!
I wanted to get this posted in honor of Bobby Khan. I was not close friends with him, but he was always super cool to me. He was always up for talking about the old Clear & Distinct metal shows. It’s still shocking that he is gone- I never knew he had any health issues. Be nice, you never know what people are dealing with.

Little Elvis- 3 Little Elvis Fans Cant be Wrong Demo 2012 xfer f/Master Demo Tape Kepi Presley

Today’s audio collections post is from Dal Basi’s collection of awesome Sacramento and Stockton tapes.
According to the J-Card, Little Elvis were Deke, Lucky and Doc… but Discogs tells us that they were actually Jeff Alexander (better known as Kepi Ghoulie), Eric Bianchi (Cattle Club/Side Door soundman and Kepi’s band), and Steve Marshall (I love Ethyl). They do Elvis songs, as the demo insinuates. They played Chalk it Up recently, so they are still active. Rarely active but active.
