The last of the 7“s and the last of the records I bought from my friend. I haven‘t bought a Youth Of Today record in some time and I‘m glad I added one I didn‘t own a copy of yet, in fact had never even listened to before. It‘s always fun to dive into new old records. Low budget live recordings of hardcore bands have a very unique charm to them. The quality usually isn’t that good, not necessarily the case here, but they transport the energy of hardcore show pretty well. They also speak to the resourcefulness of hardcore kids at a time when not every recording of a band was widely available and not every show was filmed to be maybe enjoyed after the fact.

Since this is the final post of this little series, here’s a nice group shot. Thanks again to my friend André, who cut me a really good deal on the whole lot. It was a fun time browsing your collection, talking hardcore and life, and just having a great time.
