JPT Scare Band-Sleeping Sickness[73-76]USA


JPT Scare Band is an American rock band.It took its name from its members first initials and their scary acid rock sound.Although the band did not release their first album until the early 1990s,they had formed in the early 1970s and made numerous recordings on a reel to reel tape deck in a basement.Songs from the album,Sleeping Sickness,went into fairly heavy rotation on FM stations WFMU and WNYU in New York,which played a major role in dredging JPT up from the depths of total obscurity.
