Last night I did something amazing! I actually downloaded The Greg Kihn Band’s “Best of Beserkley” CD on iTunes! 11.99 for 21 hard to find songs and a booklet full of Pat Johnson photographs. Not a bad deal, eh? In the interest of full disclosure you should be aware that I did this myself and used my own money so I will be making a profit from these recordings (at long last!) Of course, I won’t make millions but I’m not doing it for the money. I want these recordings to be available to the public. Call it legacy building if you want. 
This is just the beginning. Since I went through years of trying to get my stuff back from the record company, I feel justified putting it all out this year. That means all the albums! Many have not been available for decades! Most have never been available in digital format. I hand picked all the songs myself and chose the photos. I want my grandson to know what his grandpa did all those years ago. I’m still proud of it. I always will be. It was a great era.
So, if you’ve been looking for hard to find GKB material- it’s here! We also have actual CD’s too! Buy all you want at GREGKIHN.COM, we’ll make more!
Very cool. And you should be proud. What an accomplishment.
Great news. Been a long time coming.
Bought it yesterday. I’d still like Roadrunner.
My favorite Bay Area Band – saw these guys 50 times
Privlege!!!!
Huzzah!!! Now I don’t have to go through the hell of digitizing my GKB vinyl! But will you be releasing the live tracks from Germany? Looks like I know where my birthday iTunes gift card will be applied! I know people tell you they have all your albums… but I actually do.
The music gods heard my prayers… and the Beserkley recordings were released digitally!
Now I am eagerly awaiting the day they release the rest of Beserkley (Hey, that would make a good title!) that would contain more of my favorites like:
Museum
Don’t Expect to be Right
Cold Hard Cash
Chinatown
Roadrunner
Another Lonely Saturday Night
Can’t Have the Highs
Castaway
Cool to hear of the reunion/release show. How about a few national dates sometime. You’d be well received in DC (Hint).
Greg,
Do you have plans to remaster your complete library of albums and release them on CD format? I hope so! Keep me posted and I will buy the first complete set of all your work….
Sorry I have to miss the 19 May show. I hope to catch you sometime this summer. Please take care and I look forward to listening to you soon.

Back in 1983 or 84, while attending UNC Charlotte, I recorded Love Never Fails off of WDAV Flipsides radio program, it’s been one of my favorite songs since. I was excited to see it finally available digitally (as my tape copy is well worn) only to find out it’s not the version I’ve been listening to all these years! The version I have runs about 6:14, features female back-up singers and has one of the best screams in rock & roll! What gives?
