Photos By Bob B. Fanzine Pre-Order
*PLEASE NOTE THIS IS A PRE-ORDER. WE DON’T EXPECT IT TO ARRIVE TO US UNTIL AUGUST 3RD. THANK YOU*
A couple years ago we turned up a very cool lost photo album from our friend Robert Barry, a native Long Islander who was taking pictures around various New York City underground music scenes in the later 80s/early 90s. We showed the photo album to our friends at Radio Raheem Records and decided to make a project out of it. We toyed with a few different ideas on how to use them, and in the end decided to just reproduce everything as-is in a simple fanzine format split between our two labels.
This book is an almost-exact reproduction of the original album, right down to Bob's original clippings attached to the classic 1980s peel-n-stick photo album pages, and captures a candid snapshot (pun fully intended) of an era when the lines between underground music scenes were a lot more blurred — the bands featured run the gambit from the Bad Brains to Mental Abuse to Sonic Youth to rare club show appearances of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Megadeth, and everyone in between. When was the last time you saw Krakdown and Dick Dale featured in the same publication?!
Features approximately 300 photos of 27 bands spread across 80 pages in glorious full color. Each copy comes with an original photo print attached to the front cover. Limited to 300 copies.
