In 1970, three brooklyn high school friends (Marc Bell, Kenny Aaronson and Richie Wise) started DUST. DUST has been sighted as being one of the first American Heavy Metal bands.
Dust:
Drummer - Marc Bell (who was later rechristened Marky Ramone, and would keep the beat for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame/Grammy Award-winning punk legends the Ramones)
Bassist - Kenny Aaronson (who has played with everyone from Bob Dylan to Joan Jett)
Singer/Guitarist - Richie Wise and Lyricist/Producer Kenny Kerner - both of which would form a production team, and produced Kiss' first two classic albums.

Vintage Dust live footage needs to be released!

[@claymistler8936]

Absolutely!

[@davidwilloughby3995]

First band I ever saw live, opening for Alice Cooper in St. Louis, '71. DUST is the first rock album I ever bought, right after that concert.

[@louidivine3140]

Lucky!! I didn't run into dust until 2010 when my uncle pulled out the records...i was in love Totally. I would love to see them live. I have hard attack on cd amd an original of the lp want a copy of the first album

[@needyjames8769]

Where did they play at? In the 80s the bands I saw were usually at the Checkerdome or Kiel Auditorium.

[@DoomMetalSludge]

This video right here is the holy grail for 70's proto metal heads. Watching that footage and hearing those interviews was unreal!

[@matthatter2849]

Dust and Sir Lord Baltimore on the same bill.....now THAT would be one hell of a show!

[@rancid216]

Two heavy bands that most people have never heard.

[@impalaman9707]

With plenty of New York attitude!

[@NBM3]

Now there's a new york ( QUEENS !!!) show !!

[@AlejandroHernandez-fp8jl]

Please release that live footage!!

[@t.k.8027]

My girlfriends and me go insane on Dust pretty much every single night we go out, we'll sing it in the streets with our drunken voices as loud as possible. Ever so grateful for this incredible music! One of my life goals is to be able to play the entire Hard Attack album on bass.

[@danikalero6357]

You sound so badass!

[@superunknown2812]

Awesome

[@captainbeyond165]

Same here buddy me and my girl love dust and coincidentally im a bassist and i love kenny Aaronson.

[@Capillus]

One of THE BEST rock bands to ever grace this planet

[@jeffthrow6892]

Awesome band.....both albums are just great, big in STL.....damn right!!

[@TheXopony]

Hell yea!

[@msteeln]

REUNION! VINTAGE LIVE CONCERT AUDIO & VIDEO! NEW LP & GIGS! PLEASE!

[@summerman24]

YES !!!!!

[@modeljetjuggernaut4864]

So glad these guys are still alive.. especially Marky who is the lone survivor of the Ramones.

[@highnumber9494]

Model Jet Juggernaut Don't tell that to C.J. and Ritchie.

[@smellanalan]

Ramones suck. I can’t believe he went that route. Dust is tuff!!!!!

[@midwestogkush1969]

I'm a prog metal fan and was just introduced to this band and all I can think is how the hell did I miss these guys amazing music and structure

[@bashafradkin-gelmanopie6593]

Kenny Aaronson, Mark Bell (Marky Ramone) and Ritchie Wise were my friends. When Kenny Aaronson invited me to the recording studio, Kenny Kerner told me how famous KISS would become. Kenny Aaronson invited me to the KISS concert. We limoed in backstage to the Garden, they had a great show with fireworks! Then at the after party, with a delicious buffet, I spoke to Gene (Sabra! Jewish) and Paul (Jewish) like myself and Kenny, all Jewish.

[@BrotherGhostmetal]

"We were huge in St. Louis." Yeah, we always recognize good stuff here. What an influence this trio was on my mushy pre-pubescent mind,

[@michaelehrhart9670]

I absolutely LOVE this band...bought their LPs in the early 70s and still listen to them. Met Kenny Aaronson when he was the bass player for Rick Derringer. He was blown away when I mentioned Dust! Great, great band...do yourself a favor and find their music on CDs...well worth whatever you have to pay!

[@danielbritton8588]

I love Dust. Especially this opening number. It is 2/11/24 now & I just listened to Dust/Dust 2 days ago at work. My discovery of Dust back in the 80's by buying Hard Attack was a memorable experience.

[@ellsworth1956]

Bought Dust Hard attack for its album Cover! one best decision I made.

[@angelocatapang6054]

dust are the band along with the mc5,stooges,black sabbath,king crimson,cream,deep purple,jimi hendrix,budgie,led zeppelin,death(detroit),ramones of course,motorhead,hawkwind and among others that are definitely personified totally representing what ya called now as rock n' roll.

[@kosycat1]

Angelo Catapang budgie ay i didn't know they were that popular

[@highnumber9494]

Jonathan Kosyjana In certain cities like Cleveland they were pretty big.

[@JSwitz]

First time I have ever seen live footage of Dust and now I feel as if I NEED to see more badly. My old man got me into them at 13 in 1983 when he realized I was becoming a full-blown metalhead. He put on Learning To Die and I loved it. Looking at the cover, year of release, seeing Kenny and Mark as members was an easy sell on me

[@wahooworld]

I was a 17 year old rock drummer playing in local bands in my Midwest home towns area when Dust came out. the band I was in played a lot of the rock songs back then and DUST songs were some of the hardest to learn and play. We never did get them right.

[@wahooworld]

When 'DUST' album came out in 71, it was phenomenal and got the attention of a lot of rock music lovers. DUST was fresh, new original material unlike any other recording artists at that time. A three piece band where each member was so skilled and talented that the massive intricate sound that produced easily equaled Cream, Led Zeppelin, the Who, Black Sabbath and even Jimmy Hendrix Experience. Yes, That's right, It is true.

[@polako256]

Thanks Heavy for give us all punkrockers of World Marky Ramone, thank you so much

[@dyr234]

Dude I listen to dust and slaughter and the dogs all in one hand.

[@timshockley2641]

"We were HUGE in St. Louis!" Classic, Kenny!

[@eloiferreira7500]

a banda que mudou minha maneira de escutar rock , obrigado a vocês 3

[@bashafradkin-gelmanopie6593]

I was at a party with MICK JAGGER with my celebrity publicist, David Granoff. I went to see the Stones at the Garden with Ike & Tina. I drove home from Rick Derringer's concert with a member of Foreigner. In CA, carl taught me to drum. My good friend Carmine (of Rod Stewart fame) and Vinnie Appice (Rick Derringer, Black Sabbath & Axis). I did Vinnie's, Danny Johnson's and Jay's styling, make up and hair for their album when they formed Axis.

[@timklecha1401]

Of all the so called "Obscure Bands" I've found out about in the last 20 years. Dust is my favorite and From A Dry Camel is one of the best songs ever written. EPIC!!!

[@randyclere2330]

used to listen to them in Beavercreek Ohio 1972... great band

[@chillbainsbjohnson]

Guys, please keep in mind those of us who worship these 2 masterpieces. Play them live so we can witness history. NOW is the time for DUST!!!

[@bashafradkin-gelmanopie6593]

I just saw Kenny Aaronson wearing my sweater. I gave it to him at my private party on East 7th Street! He asked if he could have it, and I said to Kenny: "Of course, here." I bought it at a Vintage store.

[@Ohionortheast]

Never heard these guys gonna check them out like the sound the 70s were such a cool time for music and being young

[@stephensizensky5749]

had both albums when they came out-still have them ! used to listen on 8-track in my 70 cuda 340.i hear marc has a new challenger - god bless have fun man !!

[@sagittarius7569]

Hardest > *Hard Rock* < band in the '70s. The recording from the *Concert* is great - every honor that has dug it up and put it . Many well-known groups of the time can recall them in a very violent live music ! I still have and I'm listening to their *2 LPs* the masterpiece of the masterpiece.

[@silasmarner7586]

Hmmm listen to Evil by Cactus. Pretty damned hard too. But I LOVE THIS STUFF. My first listen and I LOVE Dust.

[@bogoaz5]

Went to high school(Erasmus)with you guys and was in your rival band. You beat us in the battle of the bands contest in the Prospect Park Amphitheater, but we went on to get our contract with Columbia weeks before you!

[@SGMICKEY]

I was a fan when first album cam out.They never get old.When Marky was in Atlanta he was in a record store Wax and Facts, there were both Dust albums in the rack he autographed both. I have them!!!

[@thorinbane]

Loved Dust, thank you for your contribution.

[@sagittarius7569]

I still have and I'm listening to their 2 LPs ... the masterpiece of the masterpiece. Incredible > *Hard Rock* < music , Marc Bell plays drums very quickly > *BRAVO*

[@ROCKGRINDER12]

old pioneers of the heavy metal sound.

Yep St. Louis loved you guys ! Those who remember still do !

[@Xtraplus92]

Super Group !!

[@angelocatapang6054]

i'm not singling out marc bell/marky ramone the drummer y'know.little did i know that before he's a voidoid and a fuckin' ramone he's a proto-punk-metal drumming behemoth in an overlooked band called dust.i'm stupefied and it all makes sense now.who he was that is.

[@GardettoJones]

I love these albums more than life itself. It's great that these albums are FINALLY getting the representation they deserve. This is a bit of a personal Holy Grail for me. HIGHLY influential! Well done, fellas!

[@Univox68]

wow, this is awesome!!!! Huge, huge Ramones fan, and now this! Exciting.

[@cestrad]

about f'ing time this gets the attention it deserves. This has been an old favorite since high school days. going to try and find this tomorrow on vinyl!

[@TheJackcannon]

Great Band, and 2 Fantastic albums....Kenny and Marc....OVER THE TOP!!!

[@FriendNotFoeBand]

I discovered this band as a teen in the early 2000s and it changed my life. My buddy had a 120 minute mixtape with this record on one side and Blues Creation on the other. So in my head, you gotta put on Blues Creation after listening to Dust.

[@claireparker7093]

I just listened to Dust for the first time really amazing love marky ramone he is such a great drummer that's what made me want to listen to dust so powerful

[@aleksandrosouzasilva4413]

excelente banda !! nao tem uma musica eruim e era pra estar entre as grandes ,mais infelizmente acabou muito cedo ,não deve nada as grandes bandas ,eles são grandes !!

[@kosycat1]

It is soo awesome to see a video like this,im 19 years old and dust is almost like the hendrix and juthro tull and cream were to them(even though i consider them all on the same level of infulentialness on me) and to see that i have a lot in common with them,not only from listing to the music but seeing video like this,i can just realate sooo much to guys like drust,and henrix,and all the great bands from the mid 60's through the 70's

[@supernova4521]

The fiercest Hard Rock group '70s. The recording of the concert was awesome - congratulations when it was dug up and placed. Many famous bands of that time can not envy them in a very fierce performing live !!! I still have and listen to their 2-LP .... a superb masterpieces. Love ❤ Peace ☮ Music ♫ ..... forever Music never dies † Long Live Rock`N`Roll ★ ♐ ŞągittąřiǚŞ

[@paullevine1813]

loved these guys back in my high school days , still got the lps, the 2nd one the cover opened up, man oh man they were hot as hell, even saw them in DC, this was really cool to see...

[@rely9]

Filmed a few shows with Yardbirds and Kenny was the nicest chillest guy. Definitely gonna get the record.

[@zubrycky]

Please, Dust, come back!!

[@paullevine1813]

Greatest hard rock lps of the 70s ,i can't imagine the original covers getting any better, if your the real Kenny K, hats off you you for those great records , i got them back when they first came out, but my original hard attack with the cover that opened up got swiped at a party so i got a new one that was just a single cover , can't blame them for swiping it it was so freakin good. ... ah to be back in those great fun filled days ,i was only 14 and was also lucky enough to have seen them play

[@norbertfranz2702]

Wow, I never knew that part of history. I have to get those two Dust albums somehow. Thank you so much. As a Kiss fan, of course I recognized the name Richie Wise. Other than that, I didn't know a thing.

[@muziktrkr]

It's good to discover an album that holds up well, or for those who were at the shows that vaguely remember, rediscover. I was hoping they would have done some shows when the re-release happened.

[@phmj]

bought hard attack in 1989, still love em marky please put some full live vid clips of full songs on

[@ronmexico1392]

They were fu*king amazing. I started collecting records 15yrs ago and while at a record show I was immediately drawn to the cover art and seeing the name in those letters I was like fuck ya. Turned it over and saw the length of the songs the song titles how many tracks there were the label and the kicker being a three piece I knew it was going to be a score. I have been praising and telling people how friggin rad they were ever since. Wasn't even til years later I realized he was he drummer for the Ramones. What a down turn in playing. Good for him to cash in but what a contrast in every way from Dust to the Ramones. Keeny Aaronsons solo on suicide is to this day dope as fu*k and his song, the last track on the first album ? Is fu*king an amazing rock song made for the bass

[@RobertIsaacRosenzweig]

LOVE YOU GUYS!

[@eduardoaugustomalandrin2224]

Dust is the best of the world!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 I love Dust!

[@andreedward6914]

O que é legal a humildade do Mark Ramone em reconhecer a criatividade subestimada do Tommy Ramone em criar um tipo de batida milimalista que criou o punk hardcore ao som da banda e a capacidade dele Mark que vinha de uma escola virtuosa com o Dust pra se ajustar a um novo padrão!

[@VIBEFAT]

Brilliant! This made my night! Thanks

[@DoomMetalSludge]

That makes sense, one can still hope! At least we get these killer reissues. Maybe that will bring Dust some much needed attention, they are one of Americas first Heavy Metal bands and deserve more credit.

[@rclere1]

I remember hearing them for the first time in 71 0r 72.... FUCK!!! HARD ATTACK was just heavy! the art work was cool!

[@jimmysaboter3]

Fucking great band. Have both their albums on CD (the digipak reissues from around 2009 from that English label). Every member was a fucking master of their instruments. Biggest revelation was Marky though. Didn't know he could play THAT great. Would love some live clips if you had any

[@tornmask1]

wow, i never knew that this rock group ever existed. i gotta find this album for sure cause this is the music that i grew up listening to from other similar bands like this one in my youth. hope there'll be videos available of this amazing band to sit back a watch the excitement for sure. shew i'm out of breath!

[@DoomMetalSludge]

By the way, check out a band called Red Fang, they have been known to throw Dust's "Suicide" into their setlist with great results. They also have a fairly big fan base. Thanks for writing, managing, and producing for one of the best bands ever Kenny!

[@deepinblack1940]

RELEASE IT ! We want it ! !

[@timshockley2641]

GREAT NEWS! Thanks for the video & info! Still got my original copies, but I'll be in line for the new ones!

[@redshaftedflicker]

Such a great band, teenagers at the time at least the two of em when the first one came out, love me some Dust, same with Sir Lord Baltimore aka original American metal

[@melquaidesskunduglio3830]

I went to see Joan Jett and the Blackhearts at Mississippi nights in St. Louis, (1995 or 96ish). My friend Bob Leach said that one of the guys in the band had formerly played with Dust. The guys in the band came to our table and talked to Bob (minus Joan) after the show. I was too shy to say anything. I don't remember their names.

[@Viper505repiV1]

Please get back together and tour PLEASE get back together and tour! Seeing Dust play live would be amazing!

[@Terribleathletes]

Would love the live footage to be released. In the studio there are two guitar parts, Richie playing both rhythm and lead, I would be interested to see how they replicated their sound live.

[@claudiocollu3627]

Grande Band!!! E' sempre un piacere ascoltare della buona musica!

[@rickweber7734]

it sounds like Pentagram's story, only successful once the band broke up, and people found their ways in other projects..that early 70s proto metal sound, Sabbath-sounding dark and heavy, they called it "Acid Rock" then..

[@nikkapatya]

this band was freakin great, hope they'd make music like that now

[@pars16]

Just talked to kenny Aronson sat. night at john eddie show in vienna,va. Said c'mon kenny and let's do this dust thing one more time. Push this new release! DUST RULES!

[@PiercingMetal]

This is exciting I can hardly wait to review this long awaited hard to find music.

[@damipunk]

Just AWESOME!!

[@tornmask1]

wow! i never knew that Marky Ramone played drums like this ever before & i neither heard of the group too. i gotta find this album for sure cause this is the music that i grew up listening to from other similar bands like this one in my youth. hope there will be dvd videos of this band to sit back a watch the excitement for sure. shheeww i'm out of breath!

[@couchcamperTM]

I never thought of Marky as a good drummer, just the usual 1-2-3-4 punk stuff. wow was I wrong, this man is among the giants.

Is there a full documentary of this or what!? I Can't find anything more info about this :/

[@mikederasmo7621]

this Band is a GOLDEN RECOD !!

[@wahooworld]

Marky was an awesome drummer, very fast, precise and all over that drum kit producing a massive full sound. The bass play Kenny Aaronson is one of the finest bass guitarist rock has ever heard. Listen to 'Loose Goose' on the first Dust album. The lead guitar player, Richie Wise and lead vocalist and song writer was practically a one man band himself. Blazing, aggressive, smoking guitar riffs and a composer of melodic unforgettable songs.

[@zipperneckkids]

This is such good stuff

[@bakeone4406]

Dust was mind blowing brain fry stuff when it came out... As vital as MC5, Blue Cheer, Mountain, Stooges and early B.O.C. The harder tracks had dang near the scalded ape intensity of Sir Lord Baltimore. Both of their albums are from a specific time and culture that's long gone. It's so *^%%$#!! weird to see the vibe Richie had going in the old photos compared to how he comes off as an older music producer in this clip, (kind of hard to believe). Fortunately the records are still around so anyone who wants to can still get off on em'!

[@ChrisBurgarellaLegacy]
