Today’s Video collections post comes from Todd Nakamine. This VH1 special is already on YT, but folks were asking me to post these pre-broadcast ones, so here you go. I don’t know if this is different from the broadcast version. If you can tell any differences, let me know!

I was planning on posting an audio recording from Dennis Newhall’s collection, but I found this while digging through some discs of his. Video it is. No Sacramento Music Archive would be complete without something from the Sacramento Jazz Jubilee anyway.
I think this one came from Greg O’Campo. He is the common thread between this and XMPT and the writing on the discs are the same..

Here’s another incomplete Magnolia Thunderfinger show from that VHS tape I got a while back. This one features the band decked out in suits & ties. Probably the most consistently lit of the 3.
Recorded by: “I’m pretty sure some dude named Willie filmed this. He followed us around for a few years…filmed a ton of gigs…then just disappeared.”… well Skid, you obviously did something to piss poor Willie off. 🙂
Someone asked for something at the end of this tape, so you get this show as well. Man, I loved the old Palms. It had an atmosphere that will never be matched. It was a real treat when some of the old-school troubadours came through town. I believed that the venue really brought the best out in these performances.
With that said, my coresound mics were at the end of their rope by this time. There was a short in one of the wires (they were eyeglass mounted mics at the end of a wire) which would emit a high pitched whine in one channel of a few later recordings. This one was just screaming in one channel and I could not process it out… so you get 1 channel duplicated into the left and right channels. If someone out there wants to attempt to fix this thing, let me know.

In 2016 or so, I was helping Shandon Sahm downsize his collection as he prepared to move to Denmark. I bought some posters and some other stuff, and he told me that he would throw some rare CD’s in the package. This is one of those CD’s.
After digging into it a bit, it looks like this was released as a bootleg CD a while back. I don’t know if this is better quality than the boot as I don’t do bootlegs. It’s a really cool show with a 13th Floor Elevators cover. Thanks Shandon!

My long-time friend Mike Parisi dropped some VHS tapes off with me a couple weeks back. Mike was in I.G.D. in the 1990s- the band had the original lineup (with Matt Polish, Mike Kingsbury, Jimmie Couch, and Don Segur) which broke up. Jimmie then resurrected the band with new members with a new sound- they even had a scratch man. Members here are Jimmie (guitar), Scott “crash” Hale on bass, Mike Parisi on drums and Tony Gomez doing the DJ duties. Too bad only 13min was filmed- it would be nice if it was longer…
