Q: ARE WE NOT DEVO?
A: WE ARE DEVOTEES!

This LP with Devo covers was compiled from tapes sent in by KROQ listeners during the summers of 1978 and 79. The contest was short of winners so Bronson and Foos did the Bakersfield group to pad it out.
It was this last band that made me visit Bakersfield (CA). But in the local bar no one had ever heard of the Boogie Boys.
