Summer Love? Regional New Wave track from San Fran

Summer Love? Regional New Wave track from San Fran

Postby plarpco » Mon Nov 12, 2012 12:32 am

A friend is trying to track down a mystery song. It was recorded off of Live 105 in San Fransisco sometime in the 80's. Lyric searches and track identifying software come up with nothing. I'm guessing it was a regional band and has been lost to history. The name "Wire Train" was thrown around, but I can't confirm it. Thanks for any help you can offer!

Here is the track: http://soundcloud.com/dj-gregory-groove/summer-luv

Here are the lyrics from this snippet (as far as I can tell):
[quote]Miles and miles of endless sand
We're too young for more than holding hands
One summer love, I'm thinking of
One summer love, I'm thinking of
Bodies in the night
Making shadows lit by firelight
One summer love, I'm thinking of
One summer love, I'm thinking of[/quote]

Looks like it was Idiot Savant.

The full track was eventually posted to soundcloud, and I was able to find a video of a performance.
