Videos: The Bomp Zone
The Bomp Zone was an original pop rock trio from the Philadelphia area whose short career existed in the early 1980s. The founding members were myself and bassist John Roberts, and we were accompanied by several different drummers (Marvin Farmer, Michael Rudolph, and Steve Parsons), along with our "silent" 4th member, soundman Leo Valentino.
We played all the popular venues in the Philadelphia area at the time, including Ripley's, Dobbs, Grendel's Lair, and Bigelow's. We were also regulars at the legendary Joe's Sportsman's Lounge in West Chester, PA, and opened for George Thorogood at Hockster's in Delaware. We played alongside many of the upcoming local bands of the time including VHF, The Get Right Band, Billy Freeze & the Extremes, Separate Checks, Brave New World, Dick Tracy and many, many others.
The three videos below were extracted from a VCR video tape copy of a cable TV show we did at the time called Vibrations on American Cablevision. It's been kept in its original 4:3 aspect ratio with the audio only minimally processed to keep the authentic vintage feel of a time gone by.
A special thank you to Susan Childs who created the Bomp Zone logo so many years ago..
