** NEW RELEASE ** Steve Rosenbaum - Have A Cool Summer! (4​-​track Gems and Summer Pop Demos: 1979​-​89)

by Dead Media Tapes

/
  • Released on the first day of summer, 6/20/21, FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER!!

    Almost TRIPLE length album compilation of songs Steve recorded between 1979-89, mainly on the Tascam 244 cassette 4-track portastudio. But also a couple studio and 8 track reel tape machine recordings. These songs were never released! This is the first time the rest of the world, besides his family and friends are hearing this! His sweet melodies and smart arrangements on every song begs the question "Why wasn't he signed to a major label back then??" You hear perfect elements of Power, Surf, Bedroom, Dream, 50s, 60s, 80s, and Jangle Pop. But i like to chew all those terms together and call it Summer Pop, which the longing, optimism and melancholy perfectly place you.. in that last month of school, and from the start to the very end of summer.

    8 track made after order placed. Comes with decorative artbox/slipcase and packaged in resealable clear polybag. Due to heavy backlog of orders, may take 6-8 weeks to make and mail out. But hopefully sooner!

    Includes unlimited streaming of ** NEW RELEASE ** Steve Rosenbaum - Have A Cool Summer! (4-track Gems and Summer Pop Demos: 1979-89) via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.
