Minutemen - Joy EP EXPANDED (1981)

A lot of you loyal viewers seem to enjoy these "Expanded Version" videos I do sometimes quite a lot so here's another one. Here is the full session (or as most as I could find) for the Miniutemen's Joy EP. What was originally three songs now becomes 14. I'm not absolutely certain that all of these tunes were recorded in the same session but it was all recorded at Casbah Studios and all produced by Mike Patton (The Middle Class/Cathedral of Tears/Trotsky Icepick - producer of Adolescents' self-titled LP and China White's "Danger Zone EP) in 1981. If I am correct in assuming this was all recorded in one session, it was all recorded in 5 hours, which is seriously impressive if you ask me.
