For Way Back Wednesday, I'm sharing something that was released on April 8, 1997, almost 26 years ago (wow, how did that happen!?). Retreat From The Sun is the title track from that dog.'s third studio album. The band had formed in Los Angeles in 1992 and sadly broke up a few months after Retreat From The Sun was released. They did regroup in 2011 and their fourth studio album, Old LP was released in 2019.
Back in the day, I never had a chance to that dog. perform but I did listen to them a lot. The mid 1990's seemed like a good time for female / female lead bands and I had them in pretty heavy rotation (along with folks like cub, Jale, Velocity Girl, The Muffs, The Softies, The Vinaigrettes, Plumtree and Coal to name just a handful).
I found this live version of Retreat From The Sun which was recorded just a couple of weeks after the record's release, on April 21, 1997 at the Bottom of the Hill in San Francisco. What a little gem! It's a terrific performance and I hope you enjoy it.
Happy hump day kids xo
you may run
like a bitch in heat
but it's fun
to sometimes try to retreat from the sun
cause it's awful lonely where i'm coming from
where i'm coming from
