Good Rats
Belmont Park, Elmont, N.Y.
Aug 23rd 1980 FM

Reposted from July 2020

From Long Island NY.
...think Blue Öyster Cult/Ramones/Patti Smith/Dictators etc.
Peppi Marchello is like Eric Bloom, Bon Scott or Dick Manitoba.
Brother Mickey is a guitar hero and Joe Franco is an amazing drummer
and...mega plus point for me is that Flo & Eddie turn up for the encore of Turties songs.

Titus

  1. I suppose there's lots of tales of the like Flo & Eddie's told.
    The Good Rats was available worldwide on October 2019 in a renowned site:
