Guide to The Peter Dougherty Collection 1965 - 2001

While surfing the net I found a website for a very interesting old tape archive. It doesn't seem much of the stuff in this archive has ever circulated. Lots of early New York Punk and No Wave band plus Dils, Weirdos, LaPeste, as well as, Pistols and Clash.

Heartbreakers - CBGB, NYC 1-76

Here's the Heartbreakers playing a show with the Ramones. There's no information on the tape but looking through the gigography for both Heartbreakers and Ramones it seems that they only ever played 4 shows together and I believe these sets were recorded January 30 or January 31, 1976 at CBGB. Both sets were recorded from the audience and the sound is good.

Television - NYC 1975

Back In Action

Got a decent place finally and got my computer set up. 

I've replaced some links with mega. 

I need to see some comments about if the links work or not and if Mega is worth it or not. 

I won't be adding anymore links until I get some feedback on those links!
