5.0 out of 5 stars
Great music from my younger years.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Plays for Lovers / House Burning Down (Audio CD)
Wow, I looked up Beefeater on Amazon in hopes that they might have this disc. No luck! (Well, Southern Studios Homepage don't have it either, and they put it out). I really would love to hear this disc nowadays. I'm sure I'd screw up the lyrics if I tried to sing along, but God, I''d have a good time doing it!

This review is from: Plays for Lovers / House Burning Down (Audio CD)
why doesn't dischord offer this essential music anymore? what an injustice. a grossly underrated and all but forgotten hardcore punk band from when i was first heavily involved in that scene, beefeater were mind-blowingly original, hugely inspirational and couldn't really be compared to any of their contemporaries of the time. but if i had to try, i'd say they had the same urgency and conviction as bad brains--with an even broader scope and range of influences than said band. beefeater were a bit too "quirky" or funky for some more close-minded hardcore and punk types' tastes, but that was truly their loss. they are still in my top five or so bands ever.

This review is from: Plays for Lovers / House Burning Down (Audio CD)
It's awfully sad to hear that this CD is out of print, because it spoke to the hearts of a whole generation of kids growing up in the eighties and early nineties. Hearing these records, when I was fourteen, taught me about the power of music not just as entertainment but as path of spiritual and political growth. Beefeater's idealism, and its sound, would probably come across as awfully dated to someone encountering it for the first time in 2003, but the band should be remembered for the crucial role it played in our lives.
