Title: A pale reproduction of the real Remains
Product review: Barry and the Remains had a superb reputation as being a killer live act, with tons of soul, hard rockin' power, and listenability. When they stepped into the recording studio, that all washed away by corporate bigwigs who wanted them to be the next Beatles or something similar. The one awesome tune here, "Don't Look Back", is stuffed at the bottom of a pretty thin track listing. For a much better vision of this infamous garage band, purchase A SESSION WITH THE REMAINS, a live demo recorded to entice a record company to sign a contract with them. It's much grittier, more exciting, and shows the real talent this band really had.
