Believe it or not, there are still many Cattle Club shows to digitize and post. Ken Doose has a bunch and I still have a few that I haven’t done yet.
This one was from a Very Small Records release party for the Mormons/Pounded Clown split I assume.
One vocal mic was too loud and the other was buried in the mix. That means that you can’t fix it in Izotope. I did what I could with the bass and the guitar and left vocal as-is.

Rebalance in Izotope Rx8: Bass +8, Guitar +4 I think.
Let’s keep it an all-Sacramento day today. This one is from Ken Doose’s collection. Ken has the most comprehensive early Sacramento punk tape collection. Hundreds of tapes to digitize. This is tape #2.
Horny Mormons were a Sac punk band who played many shows with Pounded Clown. In fact, the 2 bands have a split LP on Very Small Records. Members were Chris Woodhouse, Jay Onyskin, Mike Cinciripino, Mike Kellog. Mike Sea Pig on drums for this show.
With most soundboard tapes, drums and vocals are usually prominent. The opposite was the case here vocals were a bit buried and drums were not loud enough. I rebalanced it in Izotope, but The mix chnages so I hope I didn’t make it worse.

Oh wow, it’s Ken Doose day today. Didn’t realize it until just now. Ken has a ton of really unique local tapes. This one has demo tracks by the bands Horny Mormons and Average Joe, for use in the Alone in this World comp cassette. Ken released that comp (his first) on his Bat Guano Productions label in 1990. There were 5 tracks on the comp between the 2 bands and this seems to have way more than 5 tracks.
EDIT: LOTS OF INFO from Ken Doose! 1. 4 songs by the Horny Mormons (Neighbor Song, Rock Haircuts, Bad Potluck, Spam). Recorded live at the Cattle Club in 1990 with some overdubs. The first three songs were used for the “Alone In This World” compilation tape that I put out in 1990. 3 of the songs (Rock Haircuts, Bad Potluck, Spam) were later released on that Horny Mormons cd thingy. Rock Haircuts still rocks!!! 2. Practice tape of a short-lived unnamed band featuring Sam Wake (vocals), Chris G. (guitar), ME (bass), Andy Vaughan (drums) and one another guy that played guitar. Recorded on my old boombox at the YWCA on W Street in Sacramento, CA in 1990. I think we practiced a total of 3 times. RIP Sam. 3. Keith Levine – “Cold Turkey”. 4. Average Joe doing “Suck-Ceed” and “Average Joe” for the “Alone In This World” compilation. Average Joe had Mike Scheffner (Qore, Insurgent, Filibuster), Dave West (Qore, Insurgent) and Ground Chuck (Pollution Circus, The Driven, M.D.L., etc.) in their lineup. 5. ME playing some really bad cheesy keyboard music for a fake Cheap Jeans commercial that I did for a TV production class. Plus another keyboard ditty I’m not sure if it’s ME or not.
