The Burnt Nuggets


I have a shitload of unlabeled cassette tapes. They've collected dust in boxes for years and years, until recently I've started rooting through them to see what the fuck is on them and whether I should junk them or not.

During the early 1990's I learned how to play guitar, and for a second I was in a band. We called ourselves "The Burnt Nuggets," comprised of two guitar players (myself and my neighbor Jay), a bassist (Wayne), singer (Pat), and a drummer (Bill). We had maybe 3 or 4 songs put together, and they were all pretty garbage. One of them was a D-tuned version of The Spy Hunter Theme. We didn't take ourselves very seriously although we did pool our money together to get studio time on several occasions. We spent most of that time all playing random notes at the same time, stoned. Here I have a shit quality recording of one of those studio sessions from 1993.

I absolutely flipped my wig and shit myself when I heard "The Nuggets Theme Song" actually recorded on a cassette. I thought it would forever remain lost in time (not that it shouldn't be).

I'm sure no one across the world has any interest in this, in fact, the only reason I'm posting this here is if by some chance and of the other members of the band (aside from my neighbor) who I no longer stay in touch with somehow stumble upon some nugget downloads and get a nice trip down memory lane.
