Lone Justice is a US country rock / roots rock group that emerged from L.A.'s cowpunk scene. With their unique blend of country and rock, they captivated audiences with their energetic performances and heartfelt lyrics.

Similar to *Maria McKee*, *The Beat Farmers*, and *The Del Fuegos*, Lone Justice was at the forefront of the alternative country movement in the 1980s. They drew inspiration from artists such as *Jason & The Scorchers* and *The Long Ryders* to create their distinctive sound.

Led by lead vocalist *Maria McKee*, Lone Justice released several critically acclaimed albums, including their self-titled debut album which featured hits like "Ways to Be Wicked" and "Sweet, Sweet Baby (I'm Falling)". Their music resonated with fans who appreciated their raw energy and authentic storytelling.

Archive recording from the L.A.-based Roots Rock band fronted by Maria McKee. Recorded direct to 2-track tape in December, 1983 by engineer David Vaught and with no overdubs, those twelve tracks can finally be heard in their entirety as This Is Lone Justice: The Vaught Tapes, 1983. As Billboard's Chris Morris writes in his liner notes, the release 'offers the best representation of the band in its infancy hot, full of p*ss and vinegar, and ready to take on the world.' Nine of these twelve tracks are previously unissued, and include originals (including 'Soap, Soup And Salvation', which would appear on their Geffen debut two years later) to the covers they made their own in concert (Johnny Cash and June Carter (Cash)'s 'Jackson' and 'Nothing Can Stop My Loving You,' written by George Jones and Roger Miller.). With unseen photos and memorabilia, this collection is what Lone Justice fans have been waiting for. This Is Lone Justice: The Vaught Tapes, 1983 takes us back to a time when music had an energy that was hard to contain. Thanks to that studio in Van Nuys, CA, and this release, Justice has been served!
