VA Plundered Vol 5 (The Vibes) LP

Well, if by some strange reason you are unfamiliar with The Vibes ? Then this is as good a starting point as any to get into their collective minds and see what made them one of the best Trash bands ever !

Bal (vocalist) of The Sting Rays once mentioned to me that if there was no ‘Gaz Boniface’ then he would have loved to have fronted The Vibes….It’s a shame the band was so short lived, although from the ashes came The Purple Things, The Margin Of Sanity and The Bugs all of whom deserve your undivided attention.

Extensive liner notes by J.Hollands & D.Ross.
