The Babysitters - Baby Tape (CASSETTE EP) from Telecide on Vimeo.

Quite possibly the only recorded offering from the Babysitters. At least it's the only one I can recall. I think it was sold at their shows back in the mid-80's and a good representation of the bands original work at that time.

1. I Like It On Top - 00:00 2. The Dream That Wouldn't Die - 03:23 3. Secrets - 07:14 4. I Wanna Be Your Friend - 11:34

3 Below - Medicine Man (DEMO CASSETTE) from Telecide on Vimeo.

Recorded late-80's or early 90's. Many of the songs on this demo would eventually become 3 Below's last offering called Adventurer Powered. I believe this demo is using the "classic" line up of Paul, Steve & Marques. Which would also be the last time they recorded together because Adventurer Powered did not include Steve & Marques in the line up.

1. Easy Come Easy Go - 00:00 2. Paper Dolls - 04:40 3. Limousine - 08:15 4. Bulletproof - 12:41 5. Medicine Man - 18:00 6. Bye Bye Baby - 22:30 7. Old 99 - 27:45 8: Bottoms Up - 31:25 9: Unknown Title - 36:14

The Mighty EP REVISITED - The Mighty Mofos from Telecide on Vimeo.

Late in 1984, the Mighty Mofos made an appearance on a cable TV music show called eXXtra. They performed a one hour set at a TV studio in White Bear Lake, Minnesota. They brought some sound recording equipment and the end result was the Mighty EP released in 1986. The following video contains the five songs released on the Mighty EP with the mixed sound taken from the vinyl.

The video is a tad rough due to it's age and several generations of VHS copying but it's still fun to watch with the mixed audio. You'll notice in a few spots that Bill's voice isn't matching the video at all. This is because some of the vocal tracks were redone in post-production for the EP. All that being said, we hope you enjoy this piece of legendary Minnesota music history.

Rain On Me - The Clams from Telecide on Vimeo.

What do ya get when you put an all girl band into an all male prison? Either a plot for a really cool "B" movie or this performance by the Clams at Stillwater Prison, Minnesota from 1987. The Clams could probably be best described as four gals misbehaving by way of rock & roll. They certainly traveled their own path and we're glad they did because they were a terrific performance for us to capture. We're not sure if this song was ever released on a record, CD or whatever as we couldn't locate it in any discogs on the interwebs. We know it was written by Cindy & Roxie but that's about all we know.

Voodoo Child (Jimi Hendrix) - 3 Below from Telecide on Vimeo.

Back in the 80’s, 3 Below was often introduced as the “hottest news in power blues,” and indeed they were. Paul Haaland fronted this trio that was around from mid 80’s and into the mid 90’s. Aside from covering artists like Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Cream and Los Lobos to name a few, the band also had several catchy original tunes. Paul’s guitar prowess is arguably one the best in the Midwest, even winning several guitar contests. On bass was Steve Wold who also covered vocals and wild screaming. And finally, Marques Brazier keeping time on the drum kit. This was the lineup for this clip from 1987 at the Cabooze.

This clip was from one of the last eXXtra programs and was also 3 Below’s album release party for Electric Sermonette(?). The media for this came from the original ¾” tape source footage so the video was in excellent condition. We also freshened the sound just a tad for your listening pleasure. Enjoy!

Rain - The Phones (aka Stickman) from Telecide on Vimeo.

The Phones (Stickman) are a tough act to pigeonhole due to their unique brand of rock-n-roll that helped shape the Minneapolis sound in the 80s. Jeff Cerise (vocals, sax & percussion), Rick Taves (R.T.)(guitar & vocals), Brad Mattson (drums & percussion), and James Riley (bass & vocals) are all exceptionally talented musicians and songwriters whose live performances attracted large crowds whenever and wherever they played. This 1984 eXXtra program captures them performing live in the studio at White Bear Lake, MN and gives you a taste of how tight this band was. This program was produced, directed & edited by Larry Hutchinson (Hutch).

The Phones: Jeff Cerise - Vocals, sax & percussion Rick Taves (R.T.) - Guitar & vocals Brad Mattson - Drums & percussion James Riley - Bass & vocals

Banana Puddin' - Southern Culture on the Skids (fan video) from Telecide on Vimeo.

This clip of SCOTS was shot at the Fine Line Music Cafe in Minneapolis, Minnesota - July 12th, 2019. I was actually just doing some tests for possible future multi-camera productions in the room. I like this particular song so I thought I'd pass it off as a "fan" video. Being that I'm a fan & all. I was in a nice position in the room to get some ok audio separation that I could eq a little. So it's no my usual stuff but I think the band & song make it worth posting. Enjoy!
