Notes: Not strictly speaking a Keith Levene release. The drum track from 'Ballroom Control' was later used by Levene on his solo track 'Back too Black. Although Style Scott is credited with drums, no doubt Levene has some involvement with the track.

RADWASTE

In 1989 Levene co-produced the debut album of West Coast punk band Radwaste 'Project Jolt' (HAPPY SQUID RECORDS HS 018). However, the album was never released. So embarrassed by the project Levene had asked to be unaccredited.

John Talley-Jones (now of The Urinals) told LA Weekly 25.6.99: "When I was in Radwaste in the eighties, our producer, Keith Levene, and I were ushered into a Capitol Records VP's office so he could tell us he "didn't hear any hooks".

John at Happy Squid Records also told Fodderstompf: "Keith produced the backing tracks for this record, during a difficult period for the band. The project was set aside for a year, then completed by Vitus Matare (Keith had moved back to London at this point) who had engineered the backing tracks. By the time the record had been finished, the band had reformed with different personnel and Happy Squid didn't have the resources to issue it. We may indeed release it as a limited-edition item someday, perhaps a CD-R."
