Vicious Circle - Demos (Unreleased, '81)

Ron Kleim - Vocals/Guitar

Bob Allen - Bass

Jeff Bement - Drums

Ron was kind enough to send me these demos awhile back and I'm finally getting off my ass and posting them. I believe this was all the band recorded. Don't know much about their history although I'm sure most of you know Ron would later form The Surf Trio and Marble Orchard.

Pete Weinberger - Bass
Michael Miller - Bass
Boyd Small - Drums

Richie Cuellar - Drums

Okay so I don't remember everyone who was in The Falling Spikes although I did see them play a few times. I'm sure someone will ridicule me on the Facebook page and eventually provide the needed information. John Barley has been playing music in Eugene for a long time and most of you must've seen him in several bands. This record compiles all The Falling Spikes recordings with one exception but I can't remember which song that was, just that the master had been destroyed. Hopefully a few of the former Spikes will chime in with some history and let us know what the missing tune is.

Los Xplorers were around from '80-'82 and played at Taylor's a lot. This band could seriously play! Don't know much about their history but I'm thankful that Henry has given me permission to post these live tracks. I think Henry said he had a few discs of live material that had recently been given to him by a fan, hopefully Henry will eventually share more of this stuff with us. Enjoy!

Michael Billings - Old Shorteyes is Back (Cassette Only, Dunghill 1988)

Front Cover Removed by request

 Michael Billings - Vocals, probably too many instruments to list

Virtually anyone who'd picked up an instrument in Eugene - Various other instruments

This is a compilation of Mr. Billings' material released by Dunghill in 1988. I know Dominance appeared on the Panic on 13th compilation and I think a couple of these tracks were on The While Liberals' Cat Behavior 12" ep (which I'll also eventually post) but I'm not sure which of Michael's bands originally recorded the other tracks. If anyone could shed some light on any of the tracks I'd really appreciate it. Check out Michael Billings' latest project here Black Roof City

Dose - Singleton b/w Sparrow Song 7" +1 (C/Z Records,'90)

Rob Henson - Guitar/Vocals

Chris Ross - Guitar/Vocals

Steve Grey - Bass

Collin Ross - Drums

Here is the first (only?) single by Dose released in '91 by CZ Records. The additional track was on I-5 Killers V2 I think. All three songs were originally released by the band as a demo cassette. They were around for at least a couple of years so it seems like they must have recorded more than this, anyone know? My knowledge is pretty much limited to the fact that Rob used to live on W12th across an alley from me. Not much to go on is it?

Dose - Singleton 7" (1991)

1. Singleton

2. Sparrow Song
