SVT, Extended Play, 1980 on 415 Records

San Francisco / Bay Area new wave / rock band including Jack Casady and (my former colleague) Nick Buck (from Hot Tuna) with Brian Marnell and Paul Zahl (who replaced founding drummer Bill Gibson, who went on to be in Huey Lewis and the News).

This was out of print for a long time but was reissued on CD in 2005, and a reissue of all of SVT’s work (“Always Comes Back – The Authorized Recordings”) was recently reissued in 2020 on Liberation Hall.

My copy via Aux 33 Tours in Montréal Québec. A bit surprised (but happy) to find a rare-ish Bay Area record in francophone Canada. I’ve since scored a second copy locally as well at the Record Exchange in Salem.

  1. Great band- Fun times John! Thanks for the post! I’ll send you the double vinyl if you do not have it.

    • Yes you can purchase it from Bandcamp at the lowest price around $20 – it’s on Amazon for $36.
      Enjoy and trust you are well.
      My youngest works for Another Planet Entertainment in Berkeley the concert company. WOW.
      Happy Holidays John!
      Best,
      Nick

    • Yep that the lowest price I’ve seen.
      FYI it just got reviewed in the January issue of Mojo.
      I pushed for awhile to make that happen.
