The Best of Brought To Life - 241

1. LILIPUT - 'Dolly Dollar' - Demo - Switzerland - 1982

How about the vocals on this one? They even had a couple of blokes on sax and drums at this point. Not for long though.

2. THE OFFBEATS - 'In A Rush' - Oops! 7" - USA - 1983

The best 1-2-3-4 intro we've had in a while. The opening track from their debut E.P.

3. KUZLE - 'Prazna Generacija' - Demo - Yugoslavia - 1981

On the original samplers I went through a Yugoslav phase that everyone seemed to enjoy, so here we go again. Expect much more over the next few comps.

4. X-TEENS - 'Johnny's Having Fun' - Moonlight 12" - USA -1980

Some excellent organ-piped powerpop now. From their debut E.P.

5. RADNIČKA KONTROLA - 'TV U Koloru' - Jugoton LP - Yugoslavia - 1981

Available on the 'Artistička Radna Akcija' compilation album.

6. THE CREAMERS - 'So Hard' - Goofball Music 7" - USA - 1988

From their debut E.P. 'Broken Record'. Not the greatest marketing strategy.

7. KUZLE - 'Ne Vi Mislit' - Demo - Yugoslavia - 1981

A second track from their demos.

8. THE OFFBEATS - 'Ned' - Demo - USA - 1984

Available on their 'Dumb Looks Still Free' compilation.

9. X-TEENS - 'Anyone Can' - Self-released 7" - USA - 1982

The superior flipside of 'Nothing Left To Say'.

10. THE CREAMERS - 'Bob Kringle' - SFTRI 7" - USA - 1990

They even did a Christmas single, bless 'em. A single-sided etched affair.

11. KUZLE - 'Ti Si Zvezda' - Demo - Yugoslavia - 1981

A third track from their demos.

12. THE OFFBEATS - 'Look At Them Go' / 'Go Away' - Oops! 7" - USA - 1983

Two more winners from their debut E.P.

13. X-TEENS - 'Romper Rheumatism' - Dolphin LP - USA - 1983

An unusual one from their self-titled first album. Lots of fun.

14. THE CREAMERS - 'Broken Record' - Goofball Music 7" - USA - 1988

The title track from their debut E.P.

15. KUZLE - 'Èe Se Rodiš Cigan' - Demo - Yugoslavia - 1981

A fourth track from their demos.

16. LILIPUT - 'I Had A Dream' - Demo - Switzerland - 1982

Another track from their 1982 demo.

17. THE OFFBEATS - 'Why Do You Hang Out?' - Oops! 7" - USA - 1983

The title track from their debut E.P.

18. X-TEENS - 'Nothing Left To Say' - Dolphin LP - USA - 1983

The album version of the single.

A fifth track from their demos.

20. THE CREAMERS - 'Father Christmas' - SFTRI 7" - USA - 1990

The other track from the 'Bob Kringle' single. A classic Kinks cover.

21. LILIPUT - 'Turn The Table' - Demo - Switzerland - 1982

The other track from their 1982 demo.

22. X-TEENS - 'Happy Again' - Dolphin LP - USA - 1983

Another track from their self-titled album.

23. THE OFFBEATS - 'Who The Fuck Do You Think You Are?' - Oops! 7" - USA - 1983

And another from their debut E.P.

24. KUZLE - 'Skrivnosti Mladih Src' - Demo - Yugoslavia - 1981

A sixth track from their demos.

25. THE CREAMERS - 'What Will The Neighbors Think?' - Flipside 12" - USA - 1990

From the 'City Of L.A.' single-sided comp - sort of Flipside's tribute to 'Yes L.A.'
