(Various Artists) 'Beach Blvd' Double LP (Italy, Radiation Records, Catalogue #RRS79CV) Brand new/unplayed copy of limited year 2020 Radiation Records label special expanded Double LP vinyl edition of legendary 1979 LA/So. Cal Punk Rock compilation Beach Blvd, originally released in 1979 on the seminal Posh Boy label.

(NOTE: SPECIAL LIMITED DOUBLE LP EDITION OF 700 HAND NUMBERED COPIES ONLY!)

RSD 2020 release. Influential independent label, Posh Boy, helped the southern California punk scene to gain traction in the late '70s and early '80s through a series of releases by then-unknown bands. The legendary 1979 compilation Beach Blvd referenced Route 39, a highway that connected the label's various artists, located in suburbs from Huntingdon Beach up to the San Gabriel Valley. Rosemead's Simpletones were one of the first melodic punk acts; Huntingdon Beach's The Crowd drew from surf rock and hardcore in equal measure, while the material credited to Rik L Rik are actually remixes of demos he cut with Negative Trend, now with bass overdubs by Simpletones guitarist Jay Lansford, who also cut lead guitar on "Atomic Lawn". This ultra-expanded, double vinyl reissue features 17 bonus tracks of Simpletones and The Crowd material, as well as live material from Rik L Rik's first group, the legendary F-Word!, and the two only known tracks recorded by The Klan, the short-lived quartet fronted by Simpletones vocalist, Richard "Snickers" Scott. Includes updated liner notes. Yellow and turquoise vinyl; gatefold sleeve; edition of 700.
