The Peace Seekers – Last Day Saloon – San Francisco 1983

October 21st, 1983

Left to right clockwise on the front cover:

Gene Parsons (banjo, guitar, vocals)

Sneaky Pete Kleinow (pedal steel guitar, vocals)

Skip Battin (bass, vocals)

Ed Ponder (drums)

During the fall of 1983, Gene Parsons, Skip Battin, Sneaky Pete Kleinow and Ed Ponder  played around California without using any real band name.

In July of 1984, after a change in personnel, they used the name "The Peace Seekers" for a tour of Europe with Roger McGuinn.

This particular concert is credited to the then-not-yet-existing band name “The Peace Seekers”.

Skip Battin does most of the talking.

From Thomas Aubrunner’s webpages:

Gene Parsons remembers:

"I didn't like the name "Peace Seekers", it sounded too weird! I mean, we all look for peace, but the name makes no sense. We were not really a band with a permanent line-up. We started in the Fall of '83 in California. I defineitely didn't want to be a drummer anymore so we got Eddie Ponder, and for the European tour we've got Jim Goodall. I wasn't supposed to come over to Europe with the band, it was a situation where it was gonna be SneakyPete or me - we can't afford to be a five man band. We also lived so far away from each other, rehearsals were a real problem. We were supposed to have two weeks of rehearsals in Los Angeles for this tour but I drove down to LA from northern California only to learn that Skip hadn't arrived from Oregon!"
