Was there ever a more paradoxical band than the Minutemen? Comprising Dennes D. Boon, Mike Watt and drummer George Hurley, all natives of working class seaport San Pedro.

Forever jocular and unpretentious to a fault, the Minutemen were alt-rock's blue-collar, union heavies of the 80s underground while also profoundly avant-garde. This was the age of Reagan, ripe for tearing apart and kicking the crap out of, but rather than get lost in a verbal revolt and a street riot, the Minutemen made their own stand.

They found their voice on their first full-length album, 1981's The Punch Line and with it, punctured the walls of San Francisco's legendary Mabuhay Gardens.

Interference proudly presents the entire original KUSF-FM broadcast of the Minutemen live from Mabuhay Gardens on 26th October 1981.

Professionally re-mastered original FM broadcast with background liners, interviews and rare archival photos.
