Way of the West question

Postby bpdp3 » Wed Aug 11, 2010 4:59 am

Today's question...

Was there a full length lp by the group Way of the West?

It seems there were three 12" singles by them - - (1)Don't Say that's just for white boys, (2)Drum and (3)See you Shake.

I thought there was more. I've done some googling but have found nothing conclusive. Anyone know if there was a full album?

Also, if there were any previous threads here about these guys, could you point me in that direction.... eternally grateful...

The two other singles were "City For Lovers" and "Feel The Steel." No album, but all the singles (including 12" versions) and other material are on iTunes (mastered from vinyl though). Pete from the band has a website dedicated to all things Way Of The West:

Thanks for the reply--- actually I got lucky and found a blog that had what looks like most of their songs-- called Death Wears White Socks, if anyone's interested

Of all places not to expect Way of the West - iTunes! And, 22 songs is more than I would have expected
