Construction Joe – Construction Joe (CD, 1996, Sonic Dirt Music)

Why This CD Matters
Construction Joe's self-titled debut captures the raw energy of mid-1990s alternative rock, blending grunge, garage rock, and indie influences into a distinctly regional release. The album reflects Burlington's vibrant underground music scene during a period when independent artists were creating and distributing music outside traditional industry channels.

Collector Note
Original 1996 release on Sonic Dirt Music. As the band's first album and a private-press Vermont release, surviving sealed copies are increasingly difficult to find. Archived as part of the Big Heavy World collection documenting Vermont's independent music history.
