Rock´n´Roll’s best kept secret has to be the Nervous Eaters and Penniman Records, through the release of this LP, is about to let everybody in on it. Some of this Boston band’s amazing songs, released as singles in the mid-70’s, have already seen the light of day on various punk comps, most notably “Loretta” and “Just Head” have been elevated to the status of “nuggets” and are counted as fave tracks amongst legions of fans of this genre. However, these songs are only the tip of the iceberg of an output full of talent and limitless rage.

Now, nearly 30 years on, Penniman is immensely proud to present “Eaterville Vol. 1” destined to be THE RECORD to do true justice to the band and earn them the dues they richly deserve as one of the best ever R’n’R bands. This compilation brings together rare stuff –recorded between 1973 and 1975!- from studio sessions and demos along with their official Rat singles and their fans favourite songs: “Degenerate” or “You Smell Like Fish”. Also included are demos like “You´Ve Heard These Chords Before” or “Planet Fever” on which the singer/songwriter Steve Cataldo and co. place themselves on the crucial dividing line between the best Stones and the Stooges. This is the missing link that we’ve all been seeking and its now ready and waiting for your ears. Eaterville Vol.1 brings to light the strength of wild and hi-voltage sound bearing witness to a band too raw and too good to be successful.
