The Best of Brought To Life - 393

1. BABY ASTRONAUTS - 'Intro' / 'I Hate This Song'

A lesser-known mid-'80s band from Minnesota. Yah.

2. JT IV - 'Waiting For The CTA'
 
Demo - USA - early '80s
Or to give him his full title, John Timmis the Fourth. Some kinda madman from Chicago. Look him up on the 'net.

3. SUBURBAN FILTH - 'Anarchy Not Monarchy'
 
Demo - UK - 1982
Real fuckin' punk, from Totton, Southampton. Most of their stuff was recorded in Rut's front room. I've been there. My Gracelands moment, obviously. Bandcamp link here.

4. GUGLIELMO - 'Un'avventura'
 
Single - Wizard 7" - Italy - 1981
Their only single. Beyond that I know nothing.

10. BEARDED LADY - 'Rock Star'
 
Single - Young Blood International 7" - UK - 1975
OK, so it's not punk, not even proto-punk, in fact, they looked pretty embarrassing if I'm honest. Still, nice single.
