We have just made our music available for purchase. Over priced garbage? ("St. John's Ballad" is a bargain @ 99 cents for those on a tight budget who would like to help out anyway, every little bit counts) Ok before you go freaking out at the cost consider this first please. You dont have to buy it just listen to it free any time you want !!! but if you do purchase all the money goes into a fund for Kevin's upcoming medical expenses (Kidney Transplant) Full details or any other info available on request, e-mail >>> ROCKSTARNYC@gmail.com
Kevin's fellow Musicians from Dublin to L.A. are planning several upcoming fund raising gigs and a raffle will be held for a Custom Guitar made by Kevin and signed by the members of a Legendary Irish Band. (No its not U2) All donations are appreciated beyond words, again e-mail us if your interested in the raffle. The Musicians on these recording include Arno Hecht of The Uptown Horns (Arno has done a world tour with The Rolling Stones and is on many great recordings including Blondie, James Brown and J. Giles Band) Johnny Donnelly from The Saw Doctors, Derek Murray from Irish Pop/Rock sensations "The Stunning", Guitar Genius Paul Bento now with Pete Steels Carnivore, The Beautiful Claire Fuller on backing Vocals and of course Drum Legend Steve Holly (Wings, Elton John & Ian Hunter from Mott The Hoople) Wow that was a mouthful of name dropping or should we say name droppings? One last thing if you purchase now and e-mail us your mailing address it entitles you to a free signed CD of the upcoming Album upon release later this year on Soho 66 Records, good deal.
This Band is falling apart at the seems, bad health has plagued the band since the get go when it was first revealed that Bassist Matt Holt had leukemia. A sudden blow for the NYC based band. That was 10 years ago, the most recent illness of lead Vocals/Guitar Kevin B. Lynch was almost the final nail in their R&R coffins, Lynch was diagnosed with ESRF (Kidney Failure) The Boys just decided that its was a good idea to be public about this, as Kevin Puts it,
"All through out the Bands lifetime Matt Holt has inspired everyone who he has ever come in contact with. He is continuously showing me new ways of living that honest moment, remaining optimistic and seeing the beauty of this challenging opportunity. If we as a band can now do that for anyone who themselves, has a Family member or a Friend who is suffering from a serious illness, nothing could please us more"
Needless Junkie is currently recording a new record with Steve Holley recruited on Drums. (Steve was with Wings in the late 70's and is currently with Ian Hunter from Mott the Hoople) one of Lynch's favorite bands. OK enough for now, sit back and enjoy some sub-FUZZ quality pre-mixes from the yet to be titled CD, thanks. Final mixes will be available by the end of this year for downloads/sale.
For the sake of love -- I beat my Woman
For the sake of love -- I turn myself into a slave
For the sake of love -- I starve out all of Africa's Children
For the sake of love -- I put a bullet in my Brain
For the sake of love -- I go to my Church every Sunday morning
For the sake of love -- I Fornicate with my Neighbor's Wife
For the sake of love -- I send my Son to fight a foreign war for oil
For the sake of love -- I call another Man's Daughter a whore
For the sake of love -- I vote for my President
For the sake of love -- I fly my Flag so high
For the sake of love -- I cheat, I steal and I lie
For the sake of love -- I laugh while Iraqi Children Cry
