Draftervoi's Notes:

Tracks from the Greg Kihn Band's 1981 Country Club show were broadcast at least twice by Westwood One. Westwood One In Concert 81-10 with the Greg Kihn Band is sourced from the same concert at Wolf and Rissmiller's Country Club. Five songs are duplicated on both shows, but 81-10 has seven unique songs, and 82-12 has four unique songs.

The set list for 81-10 is:
Rendezvous (repeated on 82-12)
Womankind
Valerie
Trouble In Paradise (repeated on 82-12)
The Girl Most Likely
Sheila
Higher and Higher (repeated on 82-12)
The Break Up Song (repeated on 82-12)
Can't Stop Hurting Myself (repeated on 82-12)
For Your Love
Around and Around
Things To Come (repeated on 82-12)
Roadrunner

Billboard Magazine of Sept. 19, 1981 mentions that the August 28, 1981 Kihn show at the Country Club was filmed for MTV. There is a YouTube video of When The Music Starts that matches this WW1 performance.

justdave's notes:
Just one of the many Pre-FM recordings encoded by Draftervoi
that Rosebud and I have in our archives. I decided that we have way too many of them just sitting there on hard drives doing nothing. So for the next month or so we will be including a Pre-FM show in every upload. These are all prime encodings of some great shows so that means you are in for a lot of good stuff starting here with The Greg Kihn Band and Southern Rockers Point Blank....Yeah That's Right A Point Blank Pre-FM ... Ever think you would see that ... Well we have Draftervoi to thank for it. He gets in bidding wars for Pre-FM vinyl and CD sets then carefully encodes them. The vinyl ones he meticulously de-clicks them in Audacity 1 click at a time. So download and sit back and listen to some great music

  1. Thanks for your detailed presentation of this. For too short a time, Kihn and his estimable band could really tear it up--and did.

    After a 1983 hit single, they just fell off the map. Writer's block? Label problems? Substance abuse?

    So glad this was left behind.

    1. Not sure what actually happened but The Greg Kihn Band left their original label there was a bunch of line-up shifts till Greg was the only original left in the band. It looks like a typical story, the bands music was the some of it's parts. After losing some of those parts and adding others, it didn't quite work the same. It happens a lot.
