Radio Birdman The Essential 1974 - 1978

Founded in Australia by Michigan native, guitarist Deniz Tek and vocalist Rob Younger, Radio Birdman was one of the crucial forebears of underground, high-energy punk. Blending the Motor City sound of bands like The Stooges and MC5 that permeated Tek's youth, with elements of surf-rock, Radio Birdman developed a sound that was truly all their own. And yet, many of their recordings have remained obscure and generally unattainable. This 22-track collection contains tracks from Burned My Eye EP, Radios Appear, and Living Eyes, as well as the live tracks from Paddo ‘77 that were included in the "Ashes" box set.
