1985: Peach of Immortality (with Julie Cafritz and Jon Spencer of Pussy Galore) – 9:30 Club, Washington, DC, US
“Spencer and Martinez met at D.C.’s hallowed 9:30 club on December 8, 1985 – the feast of the Immaculate Conception – at a Jesus and Mary Chain show. ” – Rob Sheffield / Details (December 1996)
“I was very entertained by what they were doing with their usual array of cello, guitars and tape decks, plus tonight they also had a guest guitarist from Pussy Galore. The Peach of Immortality was a way of taking conventional instruments and making a most unusual collage of sounds out of them.” – WDC Period, Vol. 1, No. 13
“…I had little patience for the openers. I only remember one of them: noise band Peach of Immortality, who blew my left ear out that night. It’s never been the same.” – Mike Schulman / Culturie
*The complete performance was released on the nine disc Peach of Immortality compilation ‘Surrealismus: Paris Prag Rockville’.*
