The Real Kids - Foggy Notion

10" EP released on Norton Records in 2006.

This features the earliest known live recordings from The Kids (soon to be known as The Real Kids) recorded in Boston in 1974.

I picked this up from the Volcanic Tongue record stall at the Nurse With Wound Midsummer Day Dream event at the Tramway on Saturday, which was a superb day/evening. Well done to Optimo for organising said one-off extravaganza, cannae wait to see what they've got up their sleeves for the next time.

Anyway - saw this 10" and had to buy it, I'm a sucker for any early recordings of Velvets covers and we're treated to three here, complete with great bits of audience chatter in between. There's a a great extended work-out of Jonathan Richman's "Fly Into The Mystery" on the flip as well, no great surprise as John Felice from The Kids was also in the Modern Lovers.

Fuck me! It's been an insane couple of months of hunners-of-stuff-on but we're back! Back! BACK!...
