V/A "Cavestomp! Volume 1 -- A Torrent of Talent!" (RSD 2025)

Being in a rock ‘n’ roll band has never been about longevity. One (and done ) hit wonders come and go. And often, so do the next level freaks, geeks, and no accounts who leave us with these under 3-minute epics of angst and inspiration. Think of these songs as the audio “how to be cool” manuals that have shaped popular music and often, changed our lives! Sometimes even for the better. Now you see and hear these bands on the back of your breakfast cereal box complete with a free 45 single cutout… and now you don’t…
NOT SO FAST!
Cavestomp! Records, THE NYC garage punk rock & roll show (and it’s been suggested, floating crap game) has been reassembling and brokering reunions for these unsung (and often, unstrung) heroes for years! From all five original members of the Monks to Sky Saxon of The Seeds backed by the original members of ? & The Mysterians (sans the enigmatic ? who takes second billing to no man… or seed.) Cavestomp! features the legends of garage rock and the snot nosed young up starts they inspire!
Now for the very first time on vinyl, with sincere thanks to and in cooperation with ORG Music, tonight we’re gonna party like it’s 1966! With the VERY best of Cavestomp! - The Garage Rock Festacular! vinyl live series. Hosted by Peter Zaremba of The Fleshtones and Lenny Kaye of the Patti Smith Group!
