Earthquake rumbles!

"Finally! The best of earthquake on cd. A great mix of 70's guitar rock and catchy power pop tunes. Play it loud. You can't resist singing along to "julie ann" and "loving cup", then 'kicks" and "trainride" are solid rockers. Another highlight is a fabulous remake of "friday on my mind". This music has held up. You won't be disappointed."

Sittin' In the Middle of (IMPORT) Earthquake

"Growing up as a teenager in the late 60's & early 70's the music was a precious time for music in the Bay Area & as a music collector I have been trying to replace these gems from the past & a lot of them are not in print in the states. But thank god for imports that some of this music is again here. Earth Quake is a great example of this past music. Puts most of todays rock & roll to shame. With all there greats on one cd the expense is resonable! Get yours today."

Beserkley's Best

"Accolades were never forthcoming for this virtually unknown band, unknown outside the confinds of mid-1970's San Francisco. Even on their own label they were often overlooked while their stablemate Greg Kihn broke through for the Beserkley label on the national scene. And yet to those of us fortunate enough to frequent such venues as Winterland and the Keystone's in Berkeley and Palo Alto, Earthquake was fixture and their power-pop sound legendary. This album brings together several tracks from basically their two most popular albums, 8.5 and Leveled. From the hottest cover of the Paul Revere and the Raiders song "Kicks" to originals like Finder's Keepers and Trainride, this album is loaded with rock and roll which will surely leave you asking why weren't these guys famous! Only D.J.'s can answer that. The music speaks for itself as a testament to the many hidden treasures a listener and true rock fan can find if he wishes to say his collection is complete. And on this set there are so many memorable tunes both covers and originals. Each one done in a style which is definitely the Beserkley sound. Rather than tell you what to listen to I think you will enjoy listening for yourself and perhaps discover the most enjoyable surprise which has been all but hidden for the past quarter of a century."
