Press Quotes
This band's onstage prowess finally gets the spotlight on this live album recorded at famed punk haunt the Mabuhay Gardens. Even if you only know them from their 1982 hit 'Never Say Never,' this is a great place to start, considering how out-of-print their catalog remains in 2023.
—Billboard
Like the work of Janis Joplin and Patti Smith, Debora Iyall's words of sexual revenge and streetwise cynicism put her at odds with the prevailing, preconceived ideas of femininity.
—Midland Rocks
Captures the band at their earliest and it's a blast from start to finish, establishing what they sounded like before decisive stylistic decisions were made and major label Columbia got their hooks in. And the fidelity is quite good.
—The Vinyl District
One of the best live bands of their era led by the quintessential frontwoman Debora Iyall. They sound particularly wound up on this LP, maybe because they knew engineer Terry Hammer was recording this for posterity. You'll wish you were you were there
