The Three O'Clock "Baroque Hoedown" 1982 - 12"/45rpm EP + "fan club only" 1983 - 7"/45rpm

The first official releases by the Three O'Clock are collected together here. Baroque Hoedown (originally a 12" EP) from 1982 is paired with Sixteen Tambourines from 1983. This is a good way to check out this important band from the paisley underground. - Review by Sean Westergaard
Still signed to Frontier, the band issued the Baroque Hoedown EP, their debut release as The Three O'Clock, in late 1982. The EP was followed by a full-length LP in 1983 entitled Sixteen Tambourines. Both Frontier releases were produced by Earle Mankey. The Three O'Clock had developed into a power-pop ensemble with 1960s garage band influences. Quercio and Gutierrez co-wrote almost all the band's material, with occasional assists from Mariano. They received airplay in Southern California, notably on influential LA station KROQ-FM. "Jet Fighter" from Sixteen Tambourines became a national college radio hit. - wiki

Thanks. One of my favorite bands. You will probably notice that the track listing mentioned doesn't match what's on the back cover. So what tracks are included here?

RYP said...

Searnav,
if it comes to finding the truth: this is the US release Vinyl, 12 ", 45 RPM, EP + 1 bonus - 6 Around the world
Thanks for your attention, it's now corrected!

Hey RYP, I wonder if you will post the old epic USA Greats again?
Thanks!

Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess
I'll just sum it up what I had written and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I'm still new to everything.
Do you have any tips for beginner blog writers?
I'd certainly appreciate it.

if you live in Germany or in the UK most people say: Try Opera Browser. In 2016, a free virtual private network (VPN) service was implemented in the browser. Opera said that this would allow encrypted access to websites otherwise blocked, and provide security on public WiFi networks. Either VPN or Turbo can be enabled, but not both. It is not a problem to have several browsers on the computer and to use them in parallel. They do not bother each other!
I'm on a Mac and I'm using the "Avira Phantom VPN" extension for chrome and it works fine!
