    Listening through those tracks between No Dice & Straight Up again, and this one is such a wonderful song by the band!

    "No Matter What" is one of my all-time favorite songs.

    "Baby Blue" was stuck in my head for MONTHS after the final episode of Breaking Bad!

    Gene Simmons (KISS) published his book on many artists who have left at age of 27, Pete Ham is included in the contents.

    (from a recent Q&A interview)
    “Even if people are having a bad day, I urge everybody to learn more how to listen, just engage in the conversation,” Gene maintains, “and if you need help, for goodness sakes, talk to your loved ones, your friends, your next-door neighbors…And if it gets serious, call the Suicide Prevention Hotline and just talk.”

    A really rocking "Long Tall Sally" sung by Tom Evans w/ The Iveys in 1968. He really had such a powerful voice on stage.


    Maybe one day more of these rare and unique concert tapes will be released officially through Estates of Pete Ham & Tom Evans.

    Tom's wonderful song "Maybe Tomorrow" was a minor Hit single for The Iveys.
