Dave's notes:
Here's an interesting recording I got from fellow Dimer myshadow. Going by the info supplied with the tape, what we have is John cipollina and Nick Gravenites Fantasy Sessions from 1988. I don't have exact date info but I did a lot of searching and found none of this material has been released. As we lost John in the spring of 1989, I would imagine these are among the last studio recordings he was involved in. Many of these songs were regulars in John & Nick's shows over the years and there are some other songs I've never heard before. A couple of the songs sound more like live rehearsals with mikes placed in the studio. The rest is all quite good quality. It's all worth having for sure. A big thanks to myshadow for the source tape and to be able to let us share it here.
Enjoy, Dave

Originally seeded on DIME by davmar77 on Sept. 13, 2008 and banned the same day for containing officially released material. Actually the complete Blue Star release was included. As far as I can see this was never redone minus that portion.
Furthermore, the last 3 songs had to be removed as well... they were filler parody songs that had NOTHING to do with John and Nick.

Support the artists! Buy their official releases, go to their concerts!
