BCT #19 - Indigesti - Sguardo Realtá

From 1985. 25 Songs.

BCT #19

Chris BCT Says:
This came out 12/84. It was, at that time, all known recordings of Indigesti. It's our only tape that's not very close to a full 60 minutes (maybe 20 also?). Indigesti asked us if we'd do a tour for them in '86 like we'd done with Raw Power and Riistetyt in '84. I told my then BCT partner, Christopher that after losing $5,000 on the first tour I had no stomach to do another one. He said we wouldn't lose money. We broke even cuz the U.S. band Follow Fashion Monkeys joined the Indigesti tour and we toured in their van! Made all the financial difference. I got to be on 9 of those days, another 40 day tour. Christopher was on the rest. Stiv of T.V.O.R., one of the world's greatest zines (Italian, in Italian) was also on the tour and a gal who video taped all the show. Unfortunately, she rarely placed herself well so mostly I think she got people's heads. Great tour again. Glad we did it. Our last.

  3. Doc..where did you get this version? It is completely different than 3 of the others and doesn't match the j-card track list of the original BCT which had the songs listed in different order and even had a cover of the Circle Jerks "Red Tape" This seems to be the 4th different version of this cassette

    1. To be honest, I'm not sure where I got this one. I put out the request and lots of people started sending links. Perhaps I was sent a wrong version? I'm so damned trusting!
