Band Members:After four years, many studio sessions, many miles and many thousands of dollars, the record is finally done. You can get it online at WWW.INTERPUNK.COM or at The Slackers' merch table when we're on the road.
THE SOUND OF '69 is a full-length release of great tunes from 1969 by artists like The Beatles, James Brown, Johnny Cash, The Stooges and more, covered in a skinhead-reggae, rocksteady style. Singers include Steve Jackson (Pietasters), Vic Ruggiero (Slackers), Alex Desert (Hepcat) and Bucket (Toasters). The band features Eddie Ocampo, Victor Rice, Vic Ruggiero and, of course, Agent Jay. Dave Hillyard and Glen Pine, of The Slackers, make up the horn section. The liner notes were written by Barry "Scratchy" Myers, the former DJ for The Clash. Recording and mixing have been done in New York, New Jersey, Los Angeles, Chicago, Sao Paolo, Budapest and Valencia.
