These T...Glad you liked TOXIC INCENSE MONKEY MILES.<br />These Tidal Waves were from Maine. I first heard them on the 1982 compilation LP on Cicadelic "Psychedelic Sixties, Volume 4" devoted to the Right and Stafford labels.<br />As for the Toxic Reasons, I saw them in Oklahoma City in the early 80s and was quite impressed. Discogs says they were from Dayton, Ohio originally, and I think they were working out of San Francisco when I saw them. The one thing I remember vividly about their show is that while they were slamming it out, I was thinking that THIS was what people THOUGHT they were getting from the Clash, but actually weren't (well, maybe they were back in 77-78). I chatted with one of them between sets and he gave me a poster for their album at the time (Independence?). Remember how people who put on punk shows used to rent cheap places for the shows, places that few would think of as concert venues, but the owners wanted to make a few bucks and were open-minded. This was at the Native American Cultural Center (not sure if that's the exact name) in OKC...Toxic Reasons were a great band!Bill S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07573129431937332002noreply@blogger.com
