The Mildreds - Jack The Ripper (unreleased Link Wray cover, 1995)

THE MILDREDS were an early 1990's surf-noise-punk band based in Syracuse who only put out one 7" record. Here's an unreleased song, a cover of a classic Link Wray number, which is one of several buried Mildreds songs that one day may surface. The Mildreds featured members of The Flashing Astonishers, The Electric Chick Magnets, The Dracula Jones, The Ghost Monkeys, etc. etc. Most (or all) of these photo were shot by Jeff Jones, some in NYC and some around Syracuse. Maybe someday this old unreleased stuff by The Mildreds could get released officially? Hear more of The Mildreds by clicking here! (((PS There's a buncha dooshers on You Tube in a band also called The Mildreds who dress in costumes and they suck. I hear they beat old ladies and steal their clothes. SO, know your Mildred before you use her.)))
