The Bomboras are from Southern California; they were mostly active in the late 1990’s. Organ Grinder from 1995/1997 is ten exuberant, noisy tracks that sound as if they were recorded live. Great energy, fine guitar, bass, and drums, organ is a plus. Production values are not super great, but this sort of adds to the charm.

PGM: Vocals on track 9 (side B, track 4). Breaks between tracks are sometimes filled with audience noise and talking.
