ROCKKIT

The
classic 45 RPM is ultra rare. Produced by Joe Viglione the song "Never
Say Never" was a local Boston area classic resulting in the band opening
for Sammy Hagar at the Worcester Centrum and breaking up the day
after!
See
the letter from WAAF's Russ Mottla: "Dear Joe, Just an update on your
band ROCKKIT As if FOURTEEN weeks of air-play on Bay State Rock hasn't
said enough! The song "Never Say Never" is as powerful and well
produced as anything I've heard. A real masterpiece. The requests have
not stopped for this song so airplay, of course, will also continue for a
few more weeks. I believe in Rockkit and wish you and the band much
success.
All proceeds go to enormous fees I am paying for my six cats. Thanks for your consideration.
From producer Joe Viglione's personal Varulven Records collection.

Richard
Nolan first issued a 45 rpm in the early 1960s. Then came his iconic
Boston area band, Third Rail, which appeared on Live at the Rat, the
double album documenting music from the Rathskellar nightclub.
In
the 1980s Richard decided to do something different and asked Varulven
Records (the Pop Explosion label) to distribute. He issued a cassette
live album by the Naked Cage House Band, and then this terrific 45 RPM.
These
are mint copies and they are becoming rare. Direct from the box, handed
to me by the late Richard Nolan thirty years ago. It's a great slice
of Boston Rock and Roll by an historic figure from our "new wave"
scene. Side note: last September/October original members of Third Rail
backed up the Varulven president (that would be me) for our Lou Reed
tribute band. As Third Rail would often perform with our group, it was
a delight, and will be again, as old friends get together performing
the music of both Reed and Richard Nolan.
The Naked Cage House Band 45rpm picture sleeve single. Contains two tunes:
- Track Dog
- Rolling In Clover
Released in 1988 by Shoestring Records, label # SR247 distributed by Varulven Records.
