A Remarkable Story
An “international garage band” (from Indonesia, Haiti, and 5 States) that formed on the Canadian/U.S. border in the early 70’s...decided (after 43 years!) to FINISH...and for the first time release...an entire box set of power rock-ballads they had written and recorded. The band’s name is the address of the infamous party house where they lived and recorded; Our House, Lake of the Woods, MN. The original tapes were recently discovered, remixed and remastered in Houston, TX.
