Back to Ashtabula Bands et al...







"Black Slacks"


"Chantilly Lace", "Alright, OK", "Tiny Bubbles"


"Fine, Fine, Fine"


"Man Made for Love" (short bit of the end), "Fast Girls", and "Once Is Not Enough"


"I Wanna be Sedated"




The Fast Cats were probably one of the hottest bands in Northeast Ohio during the early 1980's. The audio recordings heard on this page were done by Tim Dorman with his remote 4 track rig. These were from a gig at the Port-O-Call in April of 1982. Dorman also recorded the band at the Cove in Geneva on the Lake in October of 1981. (More BS here as I think of it.)

Dickie Dahl, Steve Tobias, and Randy Coutts on the outdoor stage at the Ashtabula Branch of Kent State University. Freeman Turner on bass guitar, John Puchan on drums, Steve Tobias wrestles a mic stand, Randy Coutts on gee-tar. Steve Tobias works out with a 10 lb. mic stand...notice the sweat. stupid captions added to a photgraph that suffered water damage from rain which was caused by the bush administration
