Here is another great tqape only release from Sammy Hall! It features 11 awesome tracks! I am not sure what year this one was released. This is VERY rare, and is a must have for any Christian/Gospel collector.
Here`s a classic from the legendary "Imperials". These guys have been around for over 50 years! When you think of ELVIS making gospel music, you SHOULD think of these guys. They recorded with him back in the 60`s. These guys are to Christian Contemporary, what Ben Franklin, George Washington, and Thomas Jefferson are to the United States. They released this in 1984 it features 10 tracks, and was never released on cd.
Here is a classic from Eric Engerbretson. He has been making music in the Pacific Northwest for years! This is a great tape. I know it was released earlier, but I am unsure of the original release date. This is the 1988 re-issue.
Super sick independent gangsta rap from Seattle, Washington. This lesser known gem was put out in 2002. Savv Crew consisted of 4 local rap dudes, and 1 local rap girl. (Universal Soldiers (Chi Chi & Jessy James)
Choklate
Kuddie Mack
Von OP). It features dope raps, and tight beats from NW producers Beezie 2000, and Mike D.
Here is another great tape from Kirkland, Washington`s, Overlake Christian Church. It is VERY hard to come by. I believe it was released ONLY on cassette. It features 5 great song medleys.

This is a lesser known but badass hard rock/metal band from Kent, Washington, which is practically my hometown. I don`t know how I didn`t know of them back in their day but I am glad I do now. This is their second cd, their first was "Island", which I have and will be posting later. It was released indy on Killjoy Records. A rockin` 3 piece band which I am told sounds to most people like Armored Saint. 
Here is a great cd from the Cruse Family. These guys have been around forever, and still doing it!
Here`s a killer cassette, NEVER PUT ON CD! Released in 1989 on Back Door Records. IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND! Awesome punk/thrash! Killer shit! 
M-set was a quirky rock band from Seattle, WA. They remind me a lot of the Foo Fighters. I think the first time I heard them was on a battle of the bands on 107.7 The End. They played together for 7 years. They released 2 EP`s and 1 full length albums. Their biggest record was "C.E.O.`s Killed The Radio Star"
I honestly don`t know much about this Canadian rock band. They sound like a lot of those mid-ninties alternative bands. 
Awesome melodic rock from where else? SEATTLE! SEE A PATTERN HERE? Anyway, this gem was released in 1996 on their own "Unleashed Records".
Killer NW rock, produced by Howard Leese.
This is a great cd! Super hard to find, and long out of print. Released in 1998 on the indy label Rearrange Records. DXD was originally a Wrangell, Alaska band that performed covers of Metallica, AC/DC, and others. They started out as an all male band, but the original singer and the bassist got in a fight over a girl (of course), so they found a girl from a traveling band to take over on vocals. They would keep that lineup and rock the Alaska bar and club scene, with their high energy punk/hard rock music. They ended up moving to Seattle, where the music scene held more opportunity.
This is “4 EVR HZ: Songs From the Heart,” by ELEANOR HYATT. It was released independently in 1993.
Here is a killer cd from the Austin Texas band "Steamroller". Released in 1997 on Redwood Records, "Cabin Fever" features 11 songs and some cool artwork. The disc is made to look like a record. Kinda cheesy, but kinda cool. 
Here is an awesome cd from "Sunset Red", out of . These guys have a cool "grunge" sound. I was, and still am a HUGE grunge fan. I wish I would have had this cd, or had known about these guys back then. If you are a fan of Pearl Jam, Mother Love Bone, or any of those good old grunge bands, you will love this!
Washington native Carry Ann made a splash in the country music world with her original tune "I Don't Do Windows'". She released this self titled debut indy in 1997. It was re-released later in 2000 on Orchard Records. Carry Ann seemed to be headed for the big-time, but I`m not sure what ever happened to her.
Here is a cool cd from E.F. Williams. I thought this cd was going to be horrible! I HATE POETRY! BUT the spoken word portion of this disc is actually pretty dope. E.F. paints a picture of gritty, Brooklyn street life. Topics range from love to crack to depression and struggle. As corny as it sounds, I can almost picture myself in NY in the late 80`s, trying to survive the ghetto. Half of the cd features spoken word type poetry (sorry I know nothing about poetry). The other half of the cd is filled with soul filled love songs, all of which have some pretty nice production.
Here is a killer hard rock cd from a great hard rockin` Seattle band. This was released in 1998 on Psyco Messiah Productions. Tydysky reminds me of other 80's hard rock bands from Seattle, like TKO, and Culprit. Singer Chris Complita sounds a lot like Glenn Danzig.
Kickass indy rock from the Seattle band "Stickman Stepchild". I believe this is their only release. The band was actually from Missoula, Montana, but the guys went to school in Seattle, at the University of Washington. They dropped this indy gem back in 1994. The cd features 12 rockin` tracks.
The 2 man band consisted of members: Josh Cain, and Steve Milburn.
Here`s another one from Seattle`s own "Before Christ". This is their debut, released independently in 1995. You can find their demo here at insanelyraremuisc!
