released many vinyl singles and cassette tapes

They released many vinyl singles and cassette tapes from 1977 onwards which were later compiled on an album called, Pass the Dust, I Think I’m Bowie , which had sophisticated and even innovative musical arrangements that had more in common with post-punk than hardcore bands like Black Flag . This album led to the band being the most represented act on Dangerhouse Records , the label established by Brown and Garrett. This was the label’s only album release, though this was not due to nepotism , but rather to bands with major-label aspirations worrying that being associated with Black Randy’s offensive songs could jeopardize their chances of being signed. The band appeared in Lou Adler ‘s 1981 satirical punk rock film Ladies and Gentlemen, The Fabulous Stains , performing “I Slept in an Arcade”. Pass the Dust… was reissued in 2004 by Sympathy for the Record Industry , and as a double LP by Vinyl Countdown Records in 2009, including the original album, the Dangerhouse singles, demos, live material, and a Black Randy phone call. Frontier Records reissued the album in 2016 on transparent pink vinyl, including a digital download with the non-LP Dangerhouse singles as bonus tracks, with a limited cassette edition co-released with Burger Records .
