Adolescents - The Complete Demos 1980-1986
"Naughty Women in Black Sweaters"
Frontier Records
This album is a delightful 30 minute romp through time, documenting the evolution of the Adolescents from an awkward teenage combo to a snarling punk rock machine. I like it.
Is it as good as Elvis's first recordings at Sun Studios? Probably not.
Is it as good as live recordings of the Beatles in Hamburg? I doubt it.
Is it better than the early dramatic work of Scott Baio as Chachi on "Happy Days"? Yes.
There you have it.
The Adolescents -- Better than Chachi.
