Artist statement excerpt:
"Long before the members of what would later form DWM even knew that industrial, experimental or punk music even really existed, and long before the band name Doc Wör Mirran was thought up in the mid 1980s in San Francisco, they recorded jam sessions in their bedrooms. Recorded in the summer of 1981 when they were still young, alive, and perhaps a bit naive, they recorded this 90 minute tape, their very first recording. Featuring Joseph B. Raimond, Bernard H. Worrick, Frank Abendroth and Jeannette Raimond (later Gustavos), it includes more than a few covers, rare for DWM, in the form of Santana´s "Evil Ways" in several versions, Zappa´s "It Can´t Happen Here", Neil Young´s "Heart Of Gold" and "Tell Me Why", The Who´s "Squeeze Box", The Door´s "My Wild Love" as well as the first version of "Help, We Need A Melody", probably their first ever own song."
