this is the band assembled to make Jeff Hamer's excellent solo album Left Wing Sweetheart. they played a handful of gigs, and this is one of the only ones taped.
no lineage, i'm afraid, but this is a nice audience recording of a terrific guest filled show that features all of Left Wing Sweetheart , some other geat Hamer songs, and a bunch of wild covers.  Jeff now displays his bountiful skills with Great American Taxi.
