On March 28th, 1990, Tommy Keene played at CBGB’s! Unfortunately, I believe this cassette only captures a 20-minute portion of his set. Nonetheless, it sounds great!

In 1989, Keene released his third full length, and second with Geffen Records, Based on Happy Times. He’d go on to release another eight studio albums. He played guitar on the Goo Goo Dolls' hit song "Broadway" which appeared on their 1998 album, Dizzy Up The Girl. Keene also collaborated with Robert Pollard of Guided By Voices in the mid-aughts. He handled guitar duties on Pollard’s 2006 solo album, From A Compound Eye, and the two released an album together, Blues And Boogie Shoes, as The Keene Brothers.

Sadly, Keene passed away in 2017 at the age of 59.
