David Tessier – Taurus EP
75OL-119 David Tessier – Taurus EP CD
$7.00 S&H Included
Digital download is available here
Track Listing
- Pipeline Drive
- Release Me
- Catapult
- Talk To Me
For Rhode Island followers of David Tessier’s former collaborations and output, Taurus presents the joyously familiar: this EP breathes new life into Pipeline Drive’s riff-fest. Catapult reminds us that there was a time in the 80’s when it was perfectly acceptable to marry heavy guitars, synths and crooning vocals. It is Release Me that stars, however, and suggests that Radiohead can retire now – Tessier has it covered with a strong dose of 70’s pomp and grace to spare. Taurus is a prime medley of Tessier’s talents, whetting the appetite for more. This is where you start.

“Live” is the long awaited new CD from Rhode Island’s legendary punk band “Two Guys and Another Guy”. This exiting 16 track release showcases 9 of their classic songs with a remarkably high quality recording produced by Stumpy (Neutral Nation) and Rockin’ Rob George. Melodic riffs from guitar legend Jon Jones demonstrate his miraculous and long awaited return to form. With these songs, the band continues to build on their historic sound – they have been compared to the Replacements and Husker Du. The band’s “Dual Les Paul” attack has been described as “aggressive but not assaulting”. Two Guys and Another Guy continue to stand amongst their peers – Neutral Nation, Rash of Stabbings, That’ll Learn Ya, the Schemers, and the Jungle Dogs as one of Rhody’s all time favorite bands. With this new CD, “TGAAG” is back on the scene.
