Cleaning out the closet as one does on a rainy winter’s day, and came across a box of videotapes… look what I found in there! Gonna have to get these converted… #Kimock #KVHW
Well, this is a nice birthday present FROM Steve.
A “new” release from #KVHW!

25 years ago today. #kvhw at Chester’s.
You’re welcome 😉
Daily #SteveKimock. Rummaging through a bunch of in tagged mp3s last night I came across this great #KVHW cover if #Zappa’s #CityOfTinyLights. Ray White himself and Steve with the #mutron with #vox #tonebender —what a sound!
I’ve got no idea of the show date. If you recognize it, let me know.
Daily #SteveKimock. A #tbt to the golden days of #KVHW. Yet another great #paneltour recording of #HighAndLonesome.
Daily #SteveKimock. 25 years ago this week. Yet another epic show in Arkansas, this time with #KVHW.
Daily #SteveKimock. Another great sit-in. This time, great guest appearance by Terry Haggerty of the #SonsOfChamplin. If you don't know the Sons, do yourself a favor and check them out-Terry is one of the pioneers of #fusion guitar. Yet another Ray no-show :-( but this one is still super hot.
Daily #SteveKimock. When Ray was a no show Steve called Jimmy Herring to fill in. Some years later I happened to see Jimmy at the Miami airport and struck up a conversation. He remembered the gig well, and was particularly impressed that the band gave him a full cut of the take for the night.
Daily #SteveKimock. A fun cover of #DavidBowie’s #SpaceOddity then rolling into the #KVHW tune #Hillbillies.
Daily #SteveKimock. One of many epic shows at #Chester’s in Fayetteville, #Arkansas. This one is the #KVHW lineup. The first review is a nice read, too.
Daily #SteveKimock. #KVHW at their peak in the spring of ‘99.
Daily #SteveKimock. Double bonus guests with #KVHW. #IkeWillis of #Zappa fame and a very young #DerekTrucks.
Daily #SteveKimock. With the W once again a no show, #KVHW Becomes #KVHH, with #fusion great #TerryHaggerty stepping in.
Daily #SteveKimock. Been a while since we’ve visited with #KVHW. A full set here starting with a piece that features our man #BobbyVega.
Daily #SteveKimock. A well-recorded #KVHW show for our Sunday morning. Probably the SK act with the lengthiest and most open #improvisation. This recording is especially nice because it captures the vocals, unlike many KVHW recordings where the mics were on stage behind the house PA.
Daily #SteveKimock. #KVHW. Probably his most commercially successful act, with Alan Hertz on drums, Bobby Vega on bass, and ex-#Zappa singer Ray White. If I’m not mistaken, this show at Studio E was their first public performance.
Daily #SteveKimock. After #KVHW broke up Steve formed The Steve Kimock Band. The lineup in the early days included #AlanHertz and #BobbyVega from KVHW and #Santana alum #TomCoster. #PeteSears also appears on this track.
It’s a long wonderfully twisty cover of #WayneShorter’s #Footprints.
Daily #SteveKimock. He really is “big in Japan.” Here’s a rendition of the harmonically ambiguous #PointOfNoReturn (he says it’s “sort of in A and D”), followed by #CrazyFingers from 2017 in Osaka.
since watching Zappa [https://m.imdb.com/title/tt4881578/] (Hulu, directed by Alex Winter aka Bill from & Ted) all-in #KVHW mood (Ray White connection + Ike Willis also with KVHW ~ #FrankZappa conduction fascinating ~ does #SteveKimock also? ~ transitions between precise segments + improv ~ impressive collection https://archive.org/details/KVHW ~ favorite show is Fillmore (which was at, fortunate to catch many live) https://archive.org/details/kvhw1999-02-26c61 looking for more suggestions
