Poison 13 - My Biggest Mistake.mp3
Poison 13 bucked the trend of mid-80’s Texas punk and HC by slowing the tempo down and incorporating elements of Blues and R&B. Featuring Tim Kerr and Chris Anderson of the Big Boys, Poison 13 recorded a mix of covers and originals featuring Kerr’s soon to be famous slide guitar. The band released a full length LP in 1984, followed by 12″ mlp a year later. A CD retrospective of their complete recordings Wine is Red, Poison is Blue was released by SubPop in 1994.

    OK… that isn’t the cover art to the CD, but it looks cooler. The CD cover art is pretty lame

    another note. Chris Gates was in Posion 13 and Big Boys with Tim Kerr. Not sure why I though ‘Anderson’ was the last name

    One of the greatest live shows I ever saw was “Posion 13″ at “Al’s Bar” in downtown L.A. circa 1985. Dose anyone have a live bootleg recording ?
