Rare 2004 press on red vinyl with printed innersleeve andinsert. Limited 500 copies

San Francisco´s Ruffians were the victims of severe generationgap syndrome, thanks to a sound that was equal parts indebted tothe late-´70s hard rock aesthetic of local legends Y&T, as itwas to up-and-coming American metal bands like Seattle´sQueensryche (although they were never quite as heavy as eitherone). Formed in 1983 by vocalist Carl Albert (Villain and ViciousRumors (RIP)), guitarists Craig Behrhorst and Chris Atchison,bassist Dan Moura, and drummer Luke Bowman, Ruffians took the usualbaby-band-steps of recording a few demos and opening shows forvisiting major acts like UFO, Saxon, and of course Y&T beforegetting the chance to record an eponymous six-song mini-album,which they released in May of 1985. Unfortunately, it only managedto attract a few supporters overseas and at American college radio,since, by the mid-´80s, the Bay Area had been rudely taken over bythrash and there was simply no way for Ruffians to compete withlocal super-powers like Metallica, Exodus, and Testament (nevermind the fact they´d been hampered from the start by a muddledsonic direction). Albert soon threw in his towel, but the bandpersisted unsuccessfully for a few more years with new vocalistRich Wilde until finally doing the same. This album features the1985 EP as well as 4 previously unreleased tracks from 1987
