The Red Rippers

In honor of Veterans Day–officially today, but observed tomorrow–we’re sharing a stream of the Red Rippers album track “Body Bag,” a devastating song about the disjunction between a “jungle-bound grunt’s” aspirations to aviation and the brutal occasion for him finally getting “his ride” on high.

Paradise of Bachelors is proud to present the first-ever reissue of the previously obscure 1983 LP by the Red Rippers, entitled Over There … and Over Here.

Soldier of Fortune magazine ad, 1983. Research, design, and remastering are all done, and PoB-05 is coming this Winter. Gird thy loins for the Red Rippers.
