Actual band version, digitized from an old rehearsal cassette
archive
The band WAS (RIP) guitarist George Barker, bassist Ray Lehner, Mike Gelbke on drums, Joel Pirard keys. Later Scott Pittman, (RIP) Bass.
JOEL PIRARD: I was in a band named ORION that broke up in 1981. George Barker was in a band called Topeka that broke up around the same time. We formed TOMBSTONE. I have adapted the stuff we wrote together and 2 he wrote in a TOPEKA and completed all the songs in a home studio. Some are simple, some are a bit more intense. Many speak to simple love and broken hearts. . So with your kind indulgence, here are songs I was able to re-record from a terrible source tape. In some cases I had to rewrite lyrics from his buried vocals! Warts and all this is ALL ME.

Story behind the song
Here are the actual songs I was able to digitize from a terrible source tape. This IS the band. These do capture the magic and energy. the main reason to post is to let you hear George. This is the origin of the song, also played in my next band, The Alienz, and recorded by me on Seven Sources Pariah CD. All variations of the arrangement.
