Description
A little crunchy, slightly distorted, extremely wild, and just perfect!

Recorded at the legendary Boston Tea Party in 1969, The Remains rip through an absolute killer of a set list, featuring road tested covers of “Hang On Sloopy,” “Johnny B. Goode,” and their crowd-pleasing original “Why Do I Cry.” Captured two and a half years after they broke up, the four original members of The Remains are in perfect form here for a one-night-only performance that was only rumored to exist- until now. From the recently discovered tapes, to pristine R.T.I. pressed vinyl! Also available on compact disc.

“There’s nothing else in The Remains’ world as wild as this one. We were on fire…on the brink…” - Barry Tashian (The Remains)

Tracklist
1. Intro / Hang On Sloopy
2. Route 66
3. All Day And All Of The Night
4. Like A Rolling Stone
5. Why Do I Cry
6. Johnny B. Goode
7. She's Nineteen Years Old
8. La Bamba / Empty Heart
9. Diddy Wah Diddy

Willy, this is the reformed band, correct being recorded in 1969?

Yes, it was the band reforming for a one off reunion show in 1969. It sounds great, and has the feel of what it would have been like seeing the band in their heyday.

I followed The Remains closely, both before their initial breakup and after they reformed, and IMO the career interruption did not diminish their power one iota. The 1969 performance is, if anything, better than anything I was privileged to see in 1966 or earlier. As a matter of fact, they still blew me away when I saw them in Arlington, Mass. just a few years back. Outside of the Rolling Stones, I cannot think of any band that seems less affected by time than these four (now, sadly, three).

Yeah, I was never able to see them back in the day, as I was too young, but I've seen them about a dozen times since they've started playing again. Always a great show.
