This is 100% unfiltered Rock and Roll. Pure and dangerous. This ain’t your daddy’s Rock and Roll (though it very well could have been, if you had a cool daddy-o). Don’t worry kids, Rock and Roll in it’s purest forms is very Punk. I had to put that “P” word in there, so you wouldn’t be afraid to like it. And isn’t that funny, because Punk (as well as R‘N’R) is supposed to have No Fear, if I may use an overused, incorporated expression, that’s quite humorous and ironic in the places it turns up. Anyway, here’s 26 pure Rock and Roll bands from all across The States (not just New York and California) and a couple more from outside those boundaries. There are many different styles of music represented on this disc, but they all have one thing in common. They are all the passionate Rock and Rollers who wear their hearts on their sleeves and leave their blood and guts on the stage (some quite literally). from the liner notes
