Description
The Swamp Rats 45: Psycho/Here There & Everywhere on St. Clair STC-2222. Rare, wild Pittsburgh garage rock that is rarely up for sale. This individual 45 has a unique backstory!
This 45 was owned by Dennis Bogi, who lived near where the Swamp Rats practiced in McKeesport, PA. As a young teen, he hung around their practices sometimes. This is his personal copy. On the label he wrote his last name and "Knives," which was the band he was in at the time. Dennis went on to be in and out of Pittsburgh-area bands for his whole life, including Potlatch Forest, Ransom, Network Blues Connection, Jump House, and several others.
The vinyl has some shine left. Under strong light it shows a haze of many thin marks; side A has less than side B. There is one small nicked section, shown in the photo. Because side A is pretty brutal garage rock, any background noise is hard to tease out from the actual recording. The noise is more noticeable on side B, but you probably won't listen to that song more than once....
The labels have some wear, including writing as per above, some light soiling, and a bit of rubbing.
Side A dead wax: [etched] PSYCHO
Side B dead wax: [etched] HERE THERE e E
