The 3rd EP from the Hydrogen Band tape archives.

A note about the production of this album: The one long 20 minute track here, "3 Eye", is actually four sections edited together from two separate sessions. There are moments of some overlap as one section / session fades down and the next one fades up.

In 1980, Dave, Barney, and Bev dragged their gear into the basement studio at the Mars Everywhere house (Mars Everywhere was Barney’s band at the time) and recorded a series of tapes straight through without stopping. No overdubs. Barney christened the group The Hydrogen Band. This EP is the third in a series of three recordings that will be made available on Bandcamp as digital downloads. The recordings were all de-mixed and re-mastered by Ian Beabout at the Rec. Room. Barney and Bev have since passed on from this world, but I can’t help but think that they’d be glad these recordings finally came to light.
