Boston Retroactive

Editorial Reviews
Album Description
"WELCOME TO BOSTON'S MUSIC UNDERGROUND" These are the bands that helped define the Boston Punk, Rock and Skacore scene in Boston and nationally from the late 1980's to date.

THE MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES coined the phrase "Skacore". These songs were the first songs recorded by rhe Bosstones as a band. Right after these sessions they changed their name from The Bosstones to The Mighty Mighty Bosstones so as not to be confused with a Boston Choral group of the same name.

THE OUTLETS released a Billboard recommended album "Whole New World" in the late 80's; The Outlets have remained active coming back strong in 1999 with 2 full length albums [1] "I Remember" [18 song CD on One Way Productions] and [2] "The Outlets" [Hendricks Records].

THE DEVOTIONS are a side project of John Felice the songwriter guitar player and singer for the legendary Boston Band THE REAL KIDS. When you see THE REAL KIDS perform live, it is a fair bet that they will play these tunes. Guest artist Kelly Knapp [THE BRISTOLS, THE DARLINGS] sings duel vocals on "Looks Like Goodbye".

THE SEXTONS feature Robin Vaughan whose dark edgy songwriting and vocals remind the listener of mairianne Faithful and The Velvt Underground.

LAST STAND [with 2 full length Maximum Rock & Roll recommended albums to their credit] are simply one of the best punk/garage bands in the United States.

SHAKE THE FAITH's first self titled album [Shake the Faith / One Way Productions] garnered One Way Productions its second BOSTON MUSIC AWARD in the independant Rock catagory [the 1st being "Devils Night Out" by THE MIGHTY MIGHTY BOSSTONES released on TAANG! Records].

BOSTON RETROACTIVE includes all six of these One Way Productions artists on one record.
