This is the story of one of the many bands that will never appear in rock n' roll history books, but is at the core of the scene; a band that earned its stripes from sweaty fans and self-taught rock aficionados in basements, garages, and small venues across the country. This is the story of two kids who came together to embrace the punk ethos of the 80's and be a part of the rock n' roll revolution sweeping the US, a world of the Ramones, Black Flag, and, of course, ELPASO. -- Goodreads. 610 20 $a ELPASO (Music group) 650 0 $a Rock musicians $z United States $v Biography. 700 1 $a Noden, Jay, $e translator. 700 1 $a O'Rourke, Beto, $e writer of foreword. 941 $a 1 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20210820011101.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F81F208A017B11ECA67BC50527ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
