"one question? where is Degenerated?!? that is one of the best Reagan youth songs and it is, for some unknown reason, left out of this release. im usually a sucker for this re-mastered/re-released stuff, but this one regresses by leaving off one of the best songs by them...and JUST that song!...and it's a shame because the sound is nice and remastered and this would have been a superb upgrade to the low sound level "collection of pop classics", but the exclusion of that single song makes the compilation an "ill pass" type of release



great otherwise, just dont believe the track listing, degenerated isnt there."

One of the best live NY HC bands

"I got to see Dave's band twice. Once in '83 at a Hare Krisna benefit in Tompkin's Square Park (with early Beasty Boys), then again at "The World" off of Houston in '84(?) with DOA/AOD/Dead Kennedys. Reagan Youth blew everyone else away. The live stuff is so much better than the studio. There was so much power and humor and rage in those live performances. I had seen a few local HC shows and liked the music and the scene, but these guys were on a completely different level. The only other band that completely floored me like that was Bad Brains."
