Rick Bryant & The Jive Bombers
A later-stage collaboration where parts of the Dabs orbit and the wider scene crossed again in a new line-up.
Where it fits
This later project sits in the same lineage as Soundshock and the earlier Dabs-era bands. The Jive Bombers were a new mix of people from the same scene, and the set was recorded in a way that makes the continuity obvious.

Scene
The clips were recorded at Zak’s Nightclub in Hamilton, New Zealand, in 1989 and fit neatly into the same chain of links that connects the Dabs family tree and the wider North Shore and Auckland bands.
