Mirrors- Shirley / She Smiled Wild (1975)

"Essential Cleveland, Ohio pre-punk / proto-punk sounds, trax recorded in 1975. Although these two trax were recorded in 1975, their release would have to wait until two years later when original Mirrors drummer, Michael Weldon facilitated their release on Hearthan in 1977, the label run by David Thomas of Pere Ubu." (Violet Times)

Studio A-side & Live B-side. Both are pretty off the hook. The live side (She Smiled Wild) has a sort of White Light/White Heat freakout appeal. 320 vinyl rip by yours truly.
