The Droogs "Guerrilla Love-In" 1991

70' s punk/New wave survivors The Droogs failed to capitalise on their mid 80's neo-garage success but continued to make great albums. This one from 1991 is produced by Paul B Cutler of The Dream Syndicate fame - who also contributed to the album by playing guitar on some of the tracks. It also features Chris Cacavas of Green On Red and the other main Dream Syndicate member, Steve Wynn !! The absolute highlight on the album is a fantastic cover version of the all time West Coast US folk/rock classic Morning Dew with some great biting guitar work !!! This CD edition also features one unreleased bonus cut. from freak emporium
