1978 Italian edition on Red Star Records of the first album by punk / power pop band from Boston.

condition (record/cover): EX / VG+ (general wear)
The Real Kids were one of Boston’s earliest new wave bands; their debut album is full of dynamite tracks that take the trashier aspect of the Rolling Stones and couple it with the high-power guitar approach of the Ramones. Frontman (and onetime Modern Lover) John Felice not only provides tough guitar and distinctive lead vocals, he has a knack for writing clear, infectious melodies. Spin “All Kindsa Girls,” “She’s Alright” or “My Baby’s Book” for proof.
