ROB SEZ: To the original share, I've added track 16, which came from a separate recording. Since the jam includes Peter H — and is from the same night, venue & show — I've included it for the sake of history. HUGE THANKS to the taper and uploader.
  
The dB’s:
Chris Stamey – guitar & vocals
Peter Holsapple – guitar, keyboard & vocals
Gene Holder – bass
Will Rigby – drums

Peppermint Lounge, NYC — way back when
Uploader’s note: The Individuals opened. The Raybeats followed The dB's and played a very short 3-song set. The grand finale was, believe it or not, a jam session, with Peter joined onstage by various members of the Bush Tetras, Au Pairs, and Malaria. Included is Part 3 of the jam (first two parts are lost).

  1. It's past midnight and I "should be in bed." Instead, I'll be listening to your latest generous sharing. Thanks again for adding another show!

  2. I used to really like the Peppermint Lounge. Shows would start really late, I think I saw one start there at 2:40am.

    I did see the dB's there and what I noted about them was their extreme exuberance and happiness about being on stage.
