Summer of 1984 I was on the 51B bus going home to Oakland from Berkeley strawberry canyon summer day camp , when a older bully was talking shit to me , Orlando the Ox stood up for me and said " Hey you wanna mess with somebody ? Come fuck with me ." Bad ass !!! The hood shut the fuck up . Orlando was staple of Telegraph Ave working security at Rasputins records . I got to thank the big Ox again 4 years later in 1988 and remind him of the story , as we were now neighbors in West Oakland and went to partys at his 8th & Peralta Special Forces house .That was cool . Those were absolutely the days. Thank you Orlando "Ox" . I still have this great !!! album on vinyl .

Holy shit! Played with these guys in '84 on a bill with the mighty Jerry's Kids - in Berkeley CA. Our dumb band was Our Neighbors Suck.

Yeah, well, I just saw FEAR, Circle Jerks, 7 Seconds, Negative Approach, Black Flag, Cro-Mags, TSOL, Dickies, Agnostic Front, Murphy's Law, so "this shit" does still exist in 22. Special Forces is one of the greatest bands I've ever heard! 70s & 80s are gone, but hardcore is alive & well, albeit more generic, commercial & respectful. I miss the 80s punk, but I love & appreciate what we have now. If you doubt it, watch Gulch's last gig @ Sound & Fury. kzread.info/dash/bejne/YoSFzLibf6zIlag.html

I just found this vinyl at work. This shit is fucking awesome!! Another awesome addition to my punk vinyl collection

Well, now, I do believe this is one of the greatest collections of music I've ever heard! Wow.

My favorite band for sure (Defend the Keg was up there, too). I miss Ruthie’s Inn - late night Wednesdays always filled out the week (with the Mab, On Broadway, and The Farm keeping weekends busy). Will always remember Orlando giving me the last half of his pitcher of beer before going on. Wasn’t this a 45rpm EP? It’s so awesomely fast sometimes I would forget to change the speed and play a whole side at 33 1/2, and not even notice it!

Damn it's been a long time since I've heard this.Had it but was just one of a couple thousand records I lost in a fire 🔥😱

Группа нештяк👍альбом крут🤘🤘мне нравится!!¡

Killer!! The thing i love about the early Punk/HC bands is they all had their own sound unlike bands from the 90s til current day that all seem to sound the same & very commercial!

Depending on the condition of how bad it's warped, that can be fixed actually if it's not that badly warped by an odd trick I learned from an old head before me.
