When RCA Records signed Robert Ellis Orrall in 1980 he had his dream band: Kook Lawry on guitar, Don Walden on bass and David Stefanelli on the drums.
44 years later they are back on the road and in the studio. But first, some unfinished business. They recorded this album in one whirlwind week in 1986.
And then they let it hibernate for 38 years. Why? Because they knew we’d really be missing the 80’s just about now. So they brought the 80’s back to 2024!

Ah the 80’s. Back then, as part of a New Wave of Boston artists that included The Stompers, Jon Butcher Axis, The Cars and The Neighborhoods, Robert Ellis Orrall rocked legendary venues like The Rat, The Paradise and The Orpheum Theater.
The band’s critically acclaimed RCA albums, "Fixation", "Contain Yourself", and "Special Pain" were recorded at Rockfield Studios in Wales with producer Roger Bechirian (Elvis Costello, Squeeze), and supported with tours opening for U2, The Kinks, Psychedelic Furs and countless others. And their Top 40 smash hit with Carlene Carter “I Couldn’t Say No” still stands as an 80’s classic.

Take a listen. Big guitars? Check. Thunderous drums? Check. Emotional vocals? Check.
It’s all here. 1 week and 38 years in the making. It’s “The War Between Us”.
