Sea Hags - Dead And Gone - Ten track unreleased performance of the late 1980s hard rock band recorded at CD Studios in San Francisco in September 1986 - Glam metal band Sea Hags sole LP was released by Chrysalis in 1989 but their first live show was May 1, 1985. When this live show was recorded in 1986, they were already opening for the Dead Kennedys, Social Distortion, Circle Jerks, X, the Flaming Lips, Redd Kross, Suicidal Tendencies, Sonic Youth, Soundgarden, Primus and even Motörhead. Their first 6 track demo was produced by renown producer/engineer Sylvia Massy and Kirk Hammett and the Metallica guitarist played on two of the tracks and quickly sold out. By September 1986, Sea Hags had played "60 or 70 shows, at least, " drummer Greg Langston said, so the band was extremely tight when they scheduled a live recording session with Massy engineering. "The recording at CD Studios is very representative of that period". In front of an invited audience of about 60 enthusiastic fans, the band charged through it's then-current set. The recording is an authentic and organic document of Sea Hags' original trio, without the additional studio players whose work figured into earlier - and later - recordings. But the label's insistence that the lineup change, drummers and add members inevitably changed the dynamic and the band fell apart. This is Sea Hags at their best... before the label meddled with the chemistry that made them such a powerful compelling live band.
