We recorded a cover of Guys Are Not Proud in 1997 that was on a split single with another local band called The Doom Buggies. It was also released as part of a four song tape. Our version had a spoken intro of Always Is Always Forever by Charles Manson. 500 copies pressed on Stanton Park records.MJ Quirkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06632606166792533264noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2305571058310227787.post-17166513105023730082017-07-31T01:44:25.705-04:002017-07-31T01:44:25.705-04:00Hi.

We recorded "Guys Are Not Proud" in a small basement studio in Anchorage, Alaska. Shortly thereafter, we played shows in San Francisco and Los Angeles. I also played on the flip side of the 45 of "Guys," a song called "Bad Girls in Love." I left the band in 1980.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2305571058310227787.post-56621721351367030372014-05-29T14:56:47.835-04:002014-05-29T14:56:47.835-04:00I bought this a long time ago, when it was out as ...I bought this a long time ago, when it was out as a single.

I'd heard about it because of a reference in MOTHER JONES around 1980, oddly enough. (Their second 7", Fake ID/Love Attack, isn't nearly as good.
