Description

“Ground Zero” by Ground Zero (Retread Records Inc., no catalog code) Recorded in Wheaton, IL 1979

Fantastic amateur power pop, likely inspired by Cheap Trick. Mostly “live” in the studio with “as little overdubbing as possible.” Lots of punchy, Nerves-style power chords. Harmony vocals, nice soloing, and (honest to goodness) some funky numbers. Track highlights: “Mystery Punch,” “Oooh! That Something,” "Outta-Mah-Hed" and “Spiked Sprite.”

Should appeal to fans of The Nerves, Pezband, Big Star, Really 3rd's, Straight Up, Bureaucrats, Tours, Gents, Atlantics, Jimmy Edwards, Techtones, Famous Players, Tweed, Distractions, TV 21, News, Fastbacks, Rousers, Squares, Local Heroes, Fast Cars, Moderns, Shivers, Vertebrats, Blades, Strangeways, Jags, Vogue, Toys, Protex, Vice Creems, Suede Crocodiles, Various Artists, KBD and Power Pearls comps, etc.

Condition:

Cover = EX (Still in shrink, absolutely spotless. Was sealed, opened and played once by me)

Record = EX (Glossy, clean as a whistle. Was sealed, opened and played once by me)

PACKAGING/SHIPPING/POSTAGE: As I’m VERY careful about keeping LPs in their described condition, I ship all LPs in custom LP mailers and use filler pads. I pack the disc with the inner-sleeve placed behind cover (both in a plastic slipcover) to prevent seam splitting in transit.

Postage for 1-2 LPs within USA: Media Mail = $3.00 or Priority Postage = $6.50, each additional LP add $1.00 (per LP).

Insurance is optional, but any uninsured package is the Buyer’s responsibility (At Your Own Risk) and I cannot refund lost or damaged packages. Insurance rates are as Follows: 0-$50.00 = $1.30; $50.01 - $100.00 = $2.20; $100.01 - $200.00 = $3.20; $200.01 and Higher = $4.20.

Foreign Postage Rates:

Airmail for Europe/UK = $11.00 for 1 LP, each additional LP add $3.00 (per LP). Surface mail Europe/UK = $5.50

Airmail for Japan/Australia/Asia = $12.00 for 1 LP, each additional LP add $3.00 (per LP). Surface mail 1 LP =$6.00.
