The Buckthrusters "Buffalo Tape" - Fresh Sounds from Middle America 1981

THE BUCKTHRUSTERS taken from "Fresh Sounds from Middle America" VA 1981 (Fresh Sounds - Fresh Tape 001)Of incidental note to Embarrassment fans, the other cassette in the set includes tunes from Embos' soundman Jim Rosencutter's band THE BUCKTHRUSTERS...
...This tape has been referred to as the "Buffalo tape" because of the Buffalo imprint on the cover of the tape. The tapes included thick booklets with pictures and interviews of each of the bands. These tracks were recorded "August 19, 1981 at Jim Skeel's home studio in Wichita" according to the liner notes on HD; co-production credits to Jim Skeel and the Embos. The Skeel sessions included much material that either made it onto Heyday or was never released. from: http://www.embarrassment.org/discography.html

THE BUCKTHRUSTERS were formed in Wichita, Kansas
Greg Cowper - accordion, synthesiser, vocals; Jim Rosencutter - bass; Britt Rosencutter - drums, vocals; Jim Skeel - keyboards, vocals; Staci Stull - guitar, vocals.
