A couple of promo shots, the first in 1988, the second in 1992.

Shockra Archives

Here's a list of Shockra shows in the archives that I have. Email me for specifics. There will be more listed later on, including analog tapes from earlier shows, radio broadcasts and spinoff shows.

I am now offering the shows only on CD. Cassette quality is too poor and it takes too long to dupe the cassettes.

CD: The requested donation has gone up a little as prices for everything are rising. $10 per show and a $2 shipping charge for each order. Shows vary according to length.

Send the donation (which includes postage) and orders to:
Edwin Hurwitz
PO Box 1128
Boulder CO 80306

All of the money collected by me goes towards the preservation of this music. Thanks for your support in the past! Please keep in mind that I am a working musician, so there will be times that I am on the road when your order comes in and it might take a while to fill the order. Rest assured that I am committed to your satisfaction!

Garuda's Groove ($10)and Freaks on Fire ($12) are both available on CD. I have remastered both and GG comes with a bonus track from our preproduction.

Garuda's Groove is also available for download at Cagefree Records.

Also available is a DVD of our show at Hamilton College (5/12/92). It certainly brings back a lot of memories! This is $12.
