The Spades

About Me

The Spades were active in Minneapolis from 1985--1987. Formed from the aftermath of Good Joe, the band played locally and opened for luminaries of the day. The van burst into flames on the way to the studio to record these songs. Mike left it on the shoulder and never looked back. "Drunken Man" was recorded straight onto one of those new-fangled DAT tapes.
