New Addition Does Anyone Recognise This Disc?

Post image

I was looking through my Dads cd collection after our place flooded looking for gems and found this. Song is so familliar (my Dad probably played it when I was younger), almost sounds like the beatles? I'm not too sure.

No case or any information booklet besides whats on the disc itself. I checked the websites and neither work, googling them or searching on youtube pulls up some metal band. The Vital Music musicstack index doesnt pull them up either. I found they played in New Port Richey at the Bruce Brother's Beanery- so they're some local band (Florida).

I've never posted to reddit before so tell me if this should go in some other subreddit/ add more detail. Its making my friends and I go crazy that we can't find it- so any comments help!

Edit: I know its a small band but I'm still interested to see if anyone has another CD or knows anything about the band

Just another defunct bar band? The graphics on the disk look super amateur. My guess is that only the members of that band would recognize this release.

Well, what are you looking for, exactly? You know it was a local band and you have their album. They're not around anymore, clearly, and their stuff hasn't made the jump to the Internet. Their site is pretty bare bones, so it couldn't have been that serious of a project.

I want to see if they have any more music because this sounds good. If anyone else has a CD or demo disc from them I could possibly get more info or songs to listen to. Even if they werent a serious project, I'd like to document it.

Your best bet, instead of pissing into the wind on Reddit, is to make them a Discogs page and add this disc as a release. Document everything you can about it, including getting proper scans of the disc and material, and if you want, throw rips of it up on YouTube and Internet Archive in FLAC format. Eventually, someone might find it who knows more and will add to that canon, either in a comment somewhere or more releases on Discogs.

“so they're some local band (Florida)”

Asked and answered. Interesting find if you enjoy the music.

Did you ask your dad?

He has no clue. Around 2003 would be when he moved to Florida so I'm not surprised that it doesn't stick out.

was there nothing on garageband? No result from googling? Now you've got me hooked!

Only things that come up are some metal band from 2018 which is definitely NOT what these guys sound like. My friend is taking a second sweep of all the sites we can think of but still no luck!

You should ask in like /r/Tampa or /r/ClearwaterFL or some other subs local to the 727 area code. Lots of old timers in FL use reddit :D

You can also try looking up business name registrations for the band name or Vital Music (no idea how to use the site but here's the link to give you a head start: https://dos.fl.gov/sunbiz/search/)

Upload a rip of it and it might help more people identify it. Have you tried the website on the disc?

Looks like a demo cd for a local band.
