SVT – Always Comes Back

An appealing blast of West Coast new wave, with good songs played with blistering intensity

The late 1970s and early 1980s were an explosive and exciting period for music and the local San Francisco music scene was no exception.

Jack Casady had been playing constantly from 1965-1972 as Jefferson Airplane, continuing on as Hot Tuna on through 1977. Hot Tuna took a bit of a break and SVT was born of this period, and these recordings represent this period so well.

Brian Marnell, Paul Zahl, Bill Gibson, Nick Buck and Jack Casady made some exciting and somewhat furious music during this time period, bringing back such memories of all of their live shows.
