]]> The New Order “The New Order” 1977.  Fun Records/Isadora. (Not to be confused with New Order, the British band! This is Ron Asheton’s (Stooges) and Dennis Thompson’s (MC5) band from the mid-70′s). The album, a French import, is a collection of two demo sessions: Side A is from 1975 with Jeff Spry on vocals, Side B was recorded in 1976 with Dave Gilbert singing after Spry quit the band following his incarceration due to a DUI, the result of drinking and quaaludes (ah, the 70′s!). Gilbert had previously performed with Ted Nugent’s Amboy Dukes in the early 70′s.

The LP is not surprisingly very Stooge-esque and lo-fi: it was compiled from Asheton’s cassette recordings of the sessions rather than the original masters. “I Can’t Quet Ya” is classic 70′s rock – I can almost picture a muscle car blaring this track out of its AM radio. “Rock ‘n’ Roll Soldiers” is another great 70′s garage-y song – it was later covered by The Hitmen in 1981.
