Napalm Beach 1983 Rock & Roll Hell to be released on vinyl soon by Burka for Everybody Records.

Napalm Beach will perform a reunion show at Club Satyricon’s final rock party October 30. Pierced Arrows are also on this bill. Others TBA

1. Napalm Beach first album, self-titled, aka Teen Dream (released on cassette in 1985, on vinyl 1986). This release would be a transfer from vinyl (though I think I’ll put the songs in cassette order, which was Chris’s order). Would like to find the master tapes, but IMO the album is good enough to release as a vinyl transfer.

2. Napalm Beach album Thunder Lizard. This was recorded in Germany in 1990, released in 1991 on vinyl and CD by a now-defunct German label called Satyricon Records. It was never released in the U.S. 12 tracks recorded in a 24-track studio.

3. Napalm Beach album LIVE 2008 aka Kill For My Bitch. This was recorded mostly at Dante’s, a club in Portland Oregon where Napalm Beach played a reunion show January 11, 2008. 13 songs. It was a short-run CD that quickly sold out. Exciting performance at bootleg-sound quality. I’d run a $5 special on this album, and it would be a very worthwhile download.

4. Snow Bud and the Flower People album Ripped Van Stinkle. Released 1992 on Tim Kerr records. The band recorded this album (originally titled El Kabong) at Dogfish Studios in Newburg, which shortly thereafter suffered a fire, burning up their pre-mixed master tapes. (Several other Northwest bands lost master tapes in this fire.) So the band went back into the studio and re-recorded the entire album, this time with brand-new bassist Nathan Jorg. This was the first album recorded by the current line-up of Snow Bud and The Flower People (Nathan Jorg on bass and Lance Paden on drums).

5. Snow Bud album Stoned And Alone. Released 1996 on CM/Shinola. This is a fully solo Snow Bud acoustic album, written and recorded while Snow Bud was snowed-in Spokane in the dead of winter. Very rare.
