In the honored annals of punk rock many a worthy band remained virtually unknown, their esoteric creations familiar to only a few devotees. The purpose of this page is to illuminate some of these forgotten acts, and make their creations available to a wider audience. All of the recordings featured here are from my own collection, and carry the official Gabe Seal of Approval. I hope you enjoy them. I can be contacted at ozarkpunkrock * hot/mail dot com.

Inspector Luv And The Rideme Babys-Another World 7”
Inspector Luv and the Rideme Babys were an obscure garage/groove band that played around the Pacific Northwest in the late 80’s and early 90’s. I found this record in a used music shop around 1991, and I've always liked it. Released on Aroma Records (based in Tacoma, Washington) in 1989, the 7” has a slow, rough sound, and a talented vocalist who at times does a spot-on impression of Iggy Pop. Some members of this band later went on to form Green Apple Quick Step, a moderately successful 90's grunge band.
