The Big Thing demo tape, 1984


 
The Big Thing was a band I formed with Jim from Wasted Talent, in State College, PA, right after WT broke up in January 1984.  The singer was Andy Redman and the bassist was Greg Loop.  When I moved to Philly in fall ’84, Jim quit too, but the band continued with a new drummer and bassist (Greg switched to guitar), eventually themselves moving to Philly (in 1986). They recorded a couple more demos, a couple 7”s and an LP, and toured a lot.

However, this is the original band with myself on drums.  This is our July 1984 demo tape, recorded on a 4-track machine.  I wrote or co-wrote a lot of these songs.  Further info given with the video itself, and pics, etc.
