draftervoi's original notes:
Greg Kihn was a local home-town rock hero here in the Bay Area, putting out an album a year between 1976 and his commercial break-through with his Top 10 hit �Jeopardy� in 1983. During those years, his hard-working band was second-billed on dozens of local shows, opening for major acts at Winterland, the Cow Palace, and the Oakland Coliseum.

In a night club, the Greg Kihn Band were a great, fun live act, and I have many memories of watching them play live. Kihn always had great taste in cover songs, and here he knocks out Chuck Berry�s �Around and Around,� Lou Reed�s �Sweet Jane,� and the Modern Lovers� �Roadrunner,�...and his drummer, Larry Lynch, takes a lead vocal on Jackie Wilson�s �Higher and Higher.�

I'm not sure about the provenance of this tape; it's not one of my master cassettes. A friend mailed me his copy and I digitized it back in the early 2000s; it's supposedly from a master cassette, but I can't confirm that as a fact.

Many thanks to draftervoi for all his efforts and providing this show through his Voodoo Wagon blog.
