The Rock N Roll Manifesto, the king of all underground rock and roll radio shows, has released the second volume in its series of compilation seven-inches. Volume I, which featured Tiger Touch, Fret Rattles, JJ & The Real Jerks, and the mighty Missile Studs, set quite a precedent for this series. So how do you top a lineup like that? If you're Greg Lonesome, you reach out to the legendary Sonny Vincent. That's right: Rock N Roll Manifesto 7" Series Vol. II kicks off with "Over A Cliff," an unreleased track from Sonny freaking Vincent! And this isn't just a Sonny Vincent song: it's a killer Sonny Vincent song! Vincent mentions being proud of his involvement with this compilation since it reflects the passion people have for music in physical formats. And that's really the point of this 7" series. These EPs are made to be records. Volume II, like Volume I before it, is the total package. The tunes smoke, the artwork (by Rob Sheley) is amazing, and the vinyl comes in three different colors (canary yellow, milky clear with canary splatter, and black with canary haze). Also included is a really slick lyric sheet with full information on each track. It's not just about hearing the music: it's about adding a super fucking cool record to your collection! Joining Sonny Vincent on this release are three of the finest bands in the underground universe: London post-punk greats Miscalculations, Swedish garage-punk sensations The Manikins, and Pennsylvania's rock and roll force of nature The Judex. Three of the four tracks are previously unreleased, and the Judex track is appearing on vinyl for the first time. All in all, this is an absolute monster of a record. It's limited to 500 copies -- which are available through Stamp Out Disco (Australia), No Front Teeth Records (UK), Hyperloop Records (UK), and the Rock N Roll Manifesto Bandcamp. To the best of my knowledge, this release is not currently available digitally. But you can trust that it's well-worth your cash if Greg Lonesome curated it!
