I guess the file I had (which I can’t find anymore) wasn’t the whole show – but Primitive wasn’t on it. The stuff I had was a mess of Howlin’ Wolf covers, and a Kinks song.

Plus, this isn’t really mine to put out – that’s up to the Groupies, or Bob Irwin from Sundazed records, who has the master.

Did they play Primitive that night?

I think there would be a market. Not huge, but fanatical. Primitive is simply the greatest!
