Classic Rock Bottom

VIC VERGEAT - Down To The Bone - 1981 LP
It did got a CD reissue about 15 years ago and I was hesitant to pull the trigger. Now, the CD is going for a liver. Oh well, perhaps they'll reissue the album once again. Vic was a guitarist for TOAD, while this album had Bobby Blotzer on drums.

BILL BRUCE - Disco Is Dead - 1995 Cassette
This is extremely rare and to my knowledge it didn't even got a Vinyl release (nor CD, for that matter). Shame, Bill Bruce showed more talent on guitar, than most of his peers. He also disappeared from the scene. I wonder what happened to him? Bill not making it in the world of axe-slingers, just shows you how fierce the competition was those days.

Strange that an album only got a cassette release. 

I was intrigued by the notion that he's completely disappeared so I tried to search him out on Google but nothing comes up for him. There are some Bill Bruce's listed but it doesn't seem to be him.

Yep, very strange.
I ordered the Cassette directly from him. I wish I kept the envelope that it came in. He did send me two paper inserts. One shown here and the second was exactly the same, except he dedicated it to me. His playing is out of this world. I wonder if he changed his name, but even then some sort of info should be available.

Actually,

here is his address (from the insert)
1257 East Delmar St.
Springfield, MO, 65804

Maybe, just maybe...

Hell, send him a message thru that site. If it's him, he might be impressed you still have that cassette.

VV was fine, nothing really earth-shattering, but a nice listen.

BB was fun, especially since he didn't edit TDWDTG. If he did, he would have lost all my respect. Stupid AM radio.
