Rec. Info:
unknown lineaged FM recording from WERS Boston. No recorder information available. This sounds low to mid generation.
This cassette (TDK SA90) -> playback on Nak DR3 -> Olympus LS11 (at WAV 16/44) -> HD -> WeTransfer -> my HD -> Audacity (edit/remaster) -> TLH8 -> FLAC _> DIME -> YOUR EARS AND MIND...
This short but great vintage DROOGS tape sounds just f**ing great. Judging the vocals, I thought this was running a bit slow, but all the instruments are in sync, so maybe Mr. Albin put
on his best "Johnny Cash" voice to let this sound a bit "darker" mooded. A bit of hiss betwen the the tracks and some crackling might suggest a vinyl source in between...
Where's the MAN to bring up the truth...???

DROOGIES session once more. I simply love this band from the depth of my heart. But before I go on with another useless praise, I'll just let you know:
THIS WAS (IS) THE FUCKING BEST GARAGE PSYCH BAND I've ever witnessed in my life. You won't regret any single note unless you heard this...SB.
