Big Hair "Big Mess Of My Heart / Spooky Blues" (1985)

Here's Big Hair with Theresa McClure doing a song called "Big Mess Of My Heart" and Caryl Miller doing something we'll just call "Spooky Blues."

Twenty-four years ago, there was a great alt-country, cowpunk band from San Jose, California by the name of Big Hair. This group had a lot of great talent, and when the band broke up, the members split off into a variety of other groups Frontier Wives, Whistling Bullets, The Kettles, the Frisky Frolics, and probably some other groups I'm forgetting.

This performance is from an event produced by KFJC Radio and I.B.S. at the Works Gallery in San Jose, California on November 22, 1985. The video camera used was an old tube camera that really hated low-light situations, so there was a fair amount of tweaking to make this video presentable.

This video is courtesy of Eric Predoehl, who shot this footage, and has been sitting on it all these years. It wasn't quite up to his usual standards, but he was convinced by some friends to share it on YouTube, simply because it captures a historic moment that nobody else had.
