Marko Van Der Werff Guitar Tech ( Garden of Eden) RIP
Rick Knudsen Drum Tech  ( DW)

This was an amazingly fun project and time in our lives....right boys?

The first 45 had My description of You and It's the Wave that Chris and Phil wrote. We recorded that with a different drummer Ric Hagen I think. Carlson is pictured on the back but didn't play on it. The real rarity is the 4 song demo that the two songs were taken from with Livin on a Capsule and She's an Invader. Also there is a tag at the end of Singing in the Rain with the original recording end line with phasing on it. The Formans of Bellevue backed the band. I'm the only one raised In Seattle. Chris and Phil were from Victoria BC and Carlson southern Cal. After we went to LA they kicked me out of the band and I started a metal band with Chris Logue called Savage Grace. We became part of the new metal movement of Los Angeles in 1981.
