==Overview==
==Overview==
''A Small Circle Of Friends'', as the title suggests, pays tribute to The Germs, a seminal, yet short-lived punk band from Los Angeles in the late 70s. Led by the mercurial Darby Crash (aka Bobby Pyn, the subject of the 2007 film ''[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0384683/ What We Do Is Secret]''), and featuring future [[Nirvana]]/[[Foo Fighters]] member Pat Smear, the band managed to leave a mark on music history despite recording only one full album. Many relevant (or at least popular) acts of the mid-90s show their appreciation with covers of songs from The Germs' limited catalog, including [[That Dog]], The Holez (Hole featuring Pat Smear), Flea (of the Red Hot Chili Peppers), and Matthew Sweet.
