Fresh Sounds From Middle America (vol 1) was the first in a series of compilations featuring bands from the Midwest region of America. Volume 1 was a split compilation cassette-only release featuring 22 tracks from 4 bands and is sometimes referred to as "the Buffalo tape" because of the Buffalo imprint on the cover of the tape.[1]

A "tape release party" concert was held on December 12, 1981, featuring all four bands, at Off The Wall Hall (now called The Bottleneck) in Lawrence, KS.[2]

The "Fresh Sounds" series was organized by Bill Rich, of Talk Talk magazine,[3] as a way to promote regional bands nationally.[4][5]

Reception

Snippets of the review from "Capitol Punishment":[6][7]

  • "While listening to this tape over a period of several weeks, all I can say is why are these bands so talented?"
  • "Get Smart! start things off with a group of songs much crisper and more alive than their recent "Words Move" EP.
  • "Mortal Micronots are nothing to get thrilled about".
  • "The Yardapes are happy and fun but not frivolous".
  • "The Embarrassment are quite possibly the best band in America".

Snippets of the review from "The Offense":[8]

  • "Sub Pop's not the only fanzine with a tape comp. Talk Talk, never one to be beaten to the punch, takes charge here with what I assume are the area's four sharpest bands."
  • "Get Smart! plays their darkest and coolest music to date. Call them my favorite bunch east of the Cal and west of Chi."
  • "Mortal Micronotz are still in high school... let's hope they don't just get older and think they have to play a lot faster. Right now it's slow, soary, soft-spoken voice."
  • "The Yardapes take after 'Human Sexual Response' by adopting the multi-front man stance and playing unpalatable music."

More recently, Rich, the University of Kansas radio station KJHK and Redline Productions (a local concert promoter) issued a sampler album entitled Fresh Sounds from Middle America #3 (#1 and #2 were cassette only releases put out by Rich in 1981). Of the sixteen bands featured on the LP, twelve are from Lawrence or nearby Topeka.}}
