These songs were recorded in the fall of 1986 at WFBE in Flint, MI. WFBE was in the Central High School building on Crapo St. Bruce Stedron was the Chief Engineer on this project. To the best of my knowledge, this was the original Need. If anyone has more info, contact Aaron at the Flint Underground Music Archive. "Research" was also aired on WFBE that same year on Kenny Roberts' show. Phil and Kenny were the first to have a night show on that station. Frank was a very mysterious character, and always reminded me of Lick Brocolli from the California Raisins (Sold Out).
