Pale Saints- Lunapark, Los Angeles Ca 11/23/94 xfer from clone of DAT master Live

Here is another one from the DAT transfer project- it just happened to be on top of the pile of stuff to do, so this gets posted today. The early 90s were a good time to be in L.A.- so many small clubs having shows, and many of them not publicized. I was usually able to catch most of the ones I wanted to see. The one that KILLED me for missing (it was a secret show) was Pirner and Murphy from Soul Asylum playing an acoustic set.
Anyway, here is another pretty nice audience recording from Kevin Haynes’ collection of masters. This one is not on YT and appears to be uncirculated.

Recorded by: Kevin Haynes
Equipment used: Sony TCD-D7 and ECM909 mic (I think)
Transfer by: Shayne Stacy
Equipment: Sony PCM-R500 and M-Audio Audiophile 2496 card

Happy Mothers Day to all moms out there! We are getting close to the end of the NAR November 1994 tour videos. Here is a show that I had seen on video, but from a different handheld source. This is the best picture quality of them all- I didn’t even need to degrain this one.

7 Seconds- Capitol Bar, Omaha Ne 11/21/94 xfer from 2nd gen VHS tape Punk Hardcore

I think I mentioned this before- back in the 90s, there were certain towns/cities where you could bank on a person consistently filming good stuff. Omaha was one of them. I never traded directly with the person who filmed these, but I usually snagged a 2nd gen copy from someone who did.
Interesting note about this show- this is a rare (to me) 3 piece setup, with Kevin playing guitar and singing. Kev, did you guys do a full tour like this? I never knew, and wikipedia is no help.
It’s cool to hear out the shizzy songs played live.

Moist- Kalx Live in Studio, Berkeley Ca 11/18/94 xfer from Pre-FM Master Cassette Tape Stockton Punk

I love it when one of my archival projects collides with a Sacramento-based band… even better when they are one of my favorites from here! The band had a few members while they were active- the only constants were (I think) Sunita Bhardwaj (Guitar & vocals), and Eric Torres (Guitar). They have Tony Muth on drums for this session, but Karen Simmons and Wendy Powell from the great Sacramento band The Skirts also did time in the band.
They only released 2 7″ EPs and a split EP with Screw 32 (fun fact- that split was one of Side One Dummy’s very first releases). So, lots of great Sacramento and general punk rock history involved.
Stick with the show- the vocals come up in the mix a bit.

Teenage Fanclub- Rodney on the Roq, KROQ FM, Pasadena 11/13/94 xfer DAT Master Brian Wilson Live Int

Wow, this is really cool. I thought that I had posted this one but I couldn’t find it on YT. I really wish that I was able to stay up late every Sunday to tape ROTR, but I had a job. And a 1 hour commute. And a 1 year old.
1st 20min-plus is interview, then 2 acoustic songs like in studio… including Brian Wilson’s “Love and Mercy” performed by the band for the first time.

Zuzu’s Petals- Bottom of the Hill, San Francisco Ca. 11/9/94 Pre-FM Soundboard xfer from KALX Master

Happy Monday! Here is another one of those live shows where the soundboard mix was simulcast on KALX. I knew KALX did these from Gilman- I actually taped a Naked Raygun show off KALX while watching the show inside the club! I did not know (until receiving this box of tapes) that they branched out to other venues.
Here is Zuzu’s Petals from Minneapolis, playing at Bottom of the Hill. The band was Coleen Elwood, Laurie Lindeen, and Linda Pitmon. They had a couple of LP’s on Twin/Tone in the early 1990s. Linda went on to play with Golden Smog, Steve Wynn, The Baseball Project, Filthy Friends and many more.
Pretty cool to find this one in the box- thanks Rick!
