If Rote Kapelle was on the Fall / Cravats side of the scene, Jesse Garon and the Desperadoes were Edinburgh somewhat darker answer to Blondie.
Andrew Tully, Angus McPake (bass guitar) and Margarita Vasquez-Ponte (drums) were in both bands. Kevin McMahon (guitars), Stuart Clarke (guitar) & Fran Schoppler (vocals) completed the line-up.
They may have been the proper happy sad pop band Edinburgh was looking for and would more than deserve to see their records reissued.
This concert was filmed in 1987 during a series of Thursday nights organized by Avalanche Records in the Cavern and Rumours, Edinburgh. The videos of the gigs were to be shown later in Avalanche Records shop.
