Witt Drawls, guitarist for the garage punk band the M80's past away in 2005. May he be forever remembered for his 20 years of contributions to Virginia Rock & Roll Music. I've uploaded a 1 hour mp3 of some of his music. Below are some notes I made about the songs:
1) Born Loser - Pre-M80's band called the Acadoos. Lineup was Witt, me and Eddie with a guy named John Barrett on the drums. Recorded in the summer of 1987 at The Corner (38th & Hampton Blvd.)
2) Records Never Lie - An Original Written By Witt & Eddie from the same show as the previous track.
3) Feel My Pride - A Lost M80's original recorded on a four track in Rusty's Attic on Virginia Ave. Witt played the farfisa track. Probably 1989 or so.
4) Dying Day - Another lost M80s original recorded at the same time as track 3.
5) 57 Nomad - The M80s track from the Estrus Gearbox 7" box set comp. Released in 1991. 
6) Sandra Gean - Taken from the M80s full length LP "In A Fury". Released on Get Hip Records in 1992. 
7) American Ruse - The Revolvers was just the M80s with Serge (later of Candy Snatchers Fame) filling in on drums. We learned a bunch of covers of songs we liked for kicks and the gigs were so successful we later went into Mid-Ease Studios and cut a five song demo. Probably 1992.
