The debut 13-track album from the American roots rock band re-released with its original front and back cover, album labels and new liner notes from Chris Morris. The LP was released on independent label Rollin' Rock records in 1980. The set is a glimpse into the Blaster's beginnings with many covers of songs the band made their own from Bill Haley, Howlin' Wolf and other American music legends. Features the original versions of the band's two most popular classic tracks, "Marie Marie" and the album title track. The groundbreaking album had been re-released by Hightone Records with a new cover and package in 1997 with both configurations unavailable for many years now. The album now makes its re-release on LP and CD in its original package from 1979. Includes new liner notes written by Chris Morris with band member interviews. Also features rare photos and memorabilia only available for this 2025 re-release.
