About Retro Retry The Retro Retry cd’s follow a unique concept with multiple acts cover a record in its entirety. The listener hears an interpretation of a complete record, instead of a random collection of covered tracks. In 2005 the first edition of Retro Retry was released. On this release ten Dutch bands covered the Sonic Youth record EVOL (1986). Among the bands were zZz, Gone Bald, Pfaff, Blues Brother Castro and Fine China Superbone.
