Really Red was one of Houston Texas' first Punk bands in the late 70's, along with The Legionaire's Disease Band, Plastic Idols and the Hates. Their roots can be traced as far back as the late 60's when Ronnie Bond and Kelly Younger had a high school band called The Lords. A few years later they met up with John Paul Williams and established themselves in the oppressive pre-punk days of the early-to-mid-70's. As a band, they had existed in some form on and off for years under various names, doing mainly covers, until they were inspired by their first Legionaire's Disease gig. With the addition of drummer Bob Weber they quickly evolved into Houston's most prominent Punk band of that era. Their sound developed into something unique and distinctive, while never straying too far from its loud, fast, aggressive roots. As one of Houston's original first-generation punk bands they built on the new sounds, and they brought all kinds of influences to bear on the examples from England and New York. Just like Austin's Big Boys and The Dicks, they made something specifically Texan out of punk rock. Their left-wing politics embraced their lone star legacy. The result was inventive, multi-faceted, and powerful. They left behind memories of countless passionate, high-energy shows, and a legacy of classic recordings.
