Description

I grew up in LA and was fortunate enough to have been into punk from '81 to '86-ish when shows were really wild, police were out of hand, and everything still had a very fresh, raw energy. I have a ton of records from back then – a lot of them original pressings. Generally I'd buy an album, record it to cassette, and then listen to the cassette to limit wear and tear on the vinyl, so most of what I have is in very good shape.
This specific 12" EP is one that I must have bought used, because I tended to take good care of my albums, and the cover of this one is in rough shape. The cover has a small hole cut out of the lower right corner, there's lots of wear along the edges, and there's a crease on the back in the upper right corner. The inner sleeve is yellowed with age and has a large tear in it. The good new is, the vinyl itself is in very good condition: no scratches, scuffs or defects that would affect play.
The Angry Samoans were a goofy band from the San Fernando Valley that often played with fellow valley bands the Dickies and Fear. Lead singer/guitarist Metal Mike tended to piss some people off with his obnoxious and/or politically incorrect lyrics.
Tracks on this EP are:
Side 1

  • Right Side of My Mind
  • Gimme Sopor
Side 2
  • Hot Cars
  • Inside My Brain
  • You Stupid A**hole
  • Get Off the Air
That last song was about Rodney Bingenheimer, whose show "Rodney on the ROQ" on Sunday nights on KROQ was the only place on the air where you could hear punk bands (I used to record the shows to cassette), but he wouldn't play the Angry Samoans, and Metal Mike got mad. 
I have 100% positive seller rating for a reason: I'm honest and up-front about what I'm selling, I package things well to make sure it arrives in the same condition as what you saw in the ad, I try to get things shipped as soon as possible after payment, and I communicate to make sure that you know what's going on.
