Please be advised of a rare reel tape discovery in Los Angeles: the unreleased debut album of The Poppees. This 12-song tape includes 1 of the group's 2 singles on Bomp Records, "If She Cries." The songs are definitely performed by The Poppees and are not from their splinter period where they became the alternate group, The Boyfriends.

The Poppees tape was found with a stack of other reel tapes, apparently from a radio station, from groups including: Yard Trauma; The Brood; The Boss Martians; and others.

The tape is being researched for transfer and release---30-plus years later after the original recordings. The Poppees performances are found original and sparkling; fans will find their 3 decade wait was not in vain.
