M.D.C. - May 1, 1983

Not the first "Rock Against Reagan" - nor was it the last. This Dicks was the Austin version which, like MDC, called attention to continued police brutality among other things. The later, SF version, sound was described as "Hard Blues Rock". In any case heir reputation hold up after a relatively short existence (1980-86), but I had ever warmed to them particularly, nor the Crucifucks for that matter. Vocals matter.
