"Over almost before they began, the LA-based trio stuck to their guns just long enough to release one self-titled 7” EP in 1976, before the inevitable acrimonious split a year later. It was this astonishingly potent EP that secured their place in rock ‘n’ roll history, thanks to the inclusion of guitarist Jack Lee’s ‘Hanging On The Telephone’, later a worldwide hit for Blondie. One Way Ticket is the band’s only ‘official’ release since that time (although bootlegging of their material has been rife), compiling the four songs from that disc alongside their unreleased studio recordings, as well as a host of live tracks and demos. To comment that this CD has been long awaited by power pop aficionados goes without saying and it’s easy to see why – the three less famous tracks from The Nerves are just as worthy of note, taking their cue from the Big Star blueprint of ultra-focussed guitar pop and injecting it with the giddy pace of punk."
